Works perfectly!

This works perfect for cleaning the photo sensor in a digital SLR camera. Its actually the glass filter over the sensor and behind the mirror that gets cleaned. The kit is small enough to slip into a camera bag when traveling and doesn't leave you wondering what to take and what to leave behind. This small kit comes with a limited number of sticky transfer tabs, so its not for people with photo sensor OCD. Its for occassional cleaning of the sensor.

Very easy to use

I used to have two stages of sensor cleaning: blowing with a Giotto Rocket and then wet cleaning. I now have three stages: Blower, Dust-Aid and Wet. I find that Dust-Aid takes care of a high percentage of the particles that a blower cant dislodge. It is quick and easy. The combination of blower and dust-aid has *greatly* reduced my need for wet cleaning. This makes the product well worth it for me.

About Dust-Aid Platinum DSLR Sys f/Dry Sensor Filter Cleaning

• DUST-AID Platinum takes dry sensor cleaning to a whole new level. Dust-Aid has taken dry sensor filter cleaning to a whole new level with the introduction of the (patent pending) Platinum DSLR Cleaner.

• It's now possible to clean any sensor filter no matter its coating or internal dust removal system (IDRS) filter housing. And to top it off, it can clean its own platinum cured cleaning silicone with specially made cleaning strips, extending it's cleaning life span.

Safely cleans all sensor filters.
• The specially engineered cleaning silicone used in the Platinum DSLR Cleaner makes it perfectly safe to use on any sensor filter. No more dragging dry brushes and their accumulated dust across the sensor filter, which could lead to scratching. Now, just press and lift a couple of times and your done!

1) Safely cleans uncoated sensor filters.
• Dust-Aid tested the Platinum on uncoated sensor filters with no affect to the sensor filter

2) Safely cleans ITO and Dichroic sensor filters.
• Dust-Aid tested the Platinum on ITO, Dichroic and weak coated sensor filters with no affect to the sensor filter coatings.

3) Safely cleans I.D.R.S.* sensor filters.
• Dust-Aid tested the Platinum on multiple IDRS sensor filters with no affect to the intenal dust removal system housing or sensor filter alignment. (*Internal Dust Removal System)

• One of the biggest features with the Platinum cleaner is its ability to have the cleaning silicone repeatedly cleaned free of accumulated dust and fibers. This means that you could have a lifetime of use out of the Platinum cleaner. The Platinum cleaner comes with 6 silicone cleaning applications.

• With the purchase of additional cleaning strips the life span of the Platinum could be extended indefinitely. The cleaning adhesive used to clean the Platinum silicone has been developed and tested not to transfer any of the adhesive to the silicone.

• The Platinum DSLR Cleaner is made from a specially manufactured platinum cured silicone that does not use any molds or mold release agents in its creation. This eliminates the chance of mold release agents permanently bonding and contaminating the silicone when it's molded.

• The Platinum silicone also has a patent pending micro texture on the cleaning surface which helps to stop the formation of a vacuum seal when it's applied to a cleaning surface. When the silicone is depressed on a surface the micro texture flattens out and adheres to any dust or fibers.

• Then, when the pressure is released the micro texture flex's back into place and allows air in, breakingthe vacuum seal. This helps to reduce the adhesion strength and impact of the cleaning
