I am curious whether anyone has had experience with this method of cleaning sensors (reported on PetaPixel): Sensor Gel Stick: Safely Clean Your Sensor Like They Do at the Service Center

 

Interestingly, one of the comments says Leica uses these in preparing cameras in the factory. I have always been reluctant to use sticky solutions because of the issue of leaving residue behind, but people seem to like this product.

Jaap and others have reported success using the Eyelead, as discussed here. I think this is what Leica uses, but I don't know if it's the same as the brand you linked. I don't think the Eyelead is distributed in the US, at least not by that name.

Nasim Mansurov is selling the Eyelead on his site in the US. Just got one.

Leica uses the Pentax “Lollipop”. Very similar.

I ordered the stick from the website associated with the website I linked to in the original post. The video made the case for me. I don't know that this will eliminate wet cleanings, but it should reduce the need for them. Also looks like a good travel solution.
