Perceval Posted March 28, 2013 Share #1 Posted March 28, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) The distance scale marks on my otherwise near-mint 35mm pre-Asph Summilux have faded for some reason. Is there any way they can be refreshed? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

earleygallery Posted March 28, 2013 Share #2 Posted March 28, 2013 Try cleaning them with a moist lens tissue. It's probably just dust/dirt. You can buy special 'pens' which will refill the engravings if that doesn't work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecar Posted March 28, 2013 Share #3 Posted March 28, 2013 If you have the patience needed, this for example should do the trick: Lacquer-Stik Paintstick, White 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMercier Posted June 6, 2013 Share #4 Posted June 6, 2013 soft cloth and glass cleaner (just a little) the foamy stuff works best, them gentley wipe in a circle. Should look new when done. Might have to do it a couple times though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWC Doppel Posted June 7, 2013 Share #5 Posted June 7, 2013 Cotton bud and lens cleaning fluid works very well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
