Pentax 67 mirror

[pluto]

Hi,

I've to clean the mirror. How can I do without demages? A soft brush is not enough because I note many little stains on it. What happen if I try to wipe with a clean cloth?

Thanks,
J

Scratches.
I use a Q tip & a little condensation from my breath on the mirror. Barely any pressure on the Q tip though.

Thanks, John.
What's a Q tip?

It's a brand name of a plastic stick with an amount of degreased cotton fibres spun around both ends. Used for cleaning the ear canal...

Are you sure Q tip is a good suggestion? I tried it on a 35 mm contax. It ruined the mirror.

Oh, Jesus! And then?
Why ruined? What happened to the mirror?

I wouldn't clean it at all.
