CAB33 Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Anyone have a good method for cleaning the module on a C-more? I've had a guy clean mine with an ultra sonic cleaner with a couple drops of dish soap in the water. It worked great but he said the cheap ultra sonic cleaners won't do it, his over $100 used from a jeweler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 You can put a module in water? I have just been wiping mine with a Qtip and alcohol or windex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Keen Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 You've been cleaning your dot? I have just been cleaning my GUN with a Qtip and a rag. I didn't know we had to clean the dot too!!!! Great now it will take me 2 more minutes to clean my gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAB33 Posted November 29, 2011 Author Share Posted November 29, 2011 Derek from MC guns said you can boil them when they get dirty, so water sounds like no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aircooled6racer Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 (edited) Hello: I would not boil the module since it may loosen up the glue that holds it all together. I use a Q-Tip and rum. Whatever is left of the rum I drink Thanks, Eric Edited November 30, 2011 by Aircooled6racer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Adamson Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Guys, I doubt any of the Q-tip solutions do anything. If you actually look at a module, you'll see it's nothing more than a plastic shield over the top of an LED and the shield has a very small pin prick in the middle of it. There isn't a *lens* per-se there, it's just the light from the LED that is shown on the glass. So taking a Qtip to the little hole really does nothing (except make sure the hole is clean). If the LED get's fogged or FOD on it from dust/dirt, you'll have to resort to the *cleaning method with water or US. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panic Flinch Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Purchased a used c more with a fancy paint job on it. Well the "artist" managed to get some paint on the glass...and I had a foggy ring around the entire perimeter of the glass...both sides. (Rant...I hate home made paint jobs on guns...Rant off) Used everything to try to get it off...Hopes, glass cleaner, alcohol, water, soap, etc...and nothing. Then saw a post about "Lime Away" from Walmart stating it was great (of course with the usual disclaimer about being careful...its on you..etc). I gave it a try with a soaked q tip...let it sit for a few minutes and wiped away. And wow...yes it was the miracle cleaner. Was very impressed. It was the only thing that worked for me. Also...dot was dim...hmmm...maybe paint on the module? Yep...ugg. Used Hopes and clean cloth and bingo...all better now. New C More with bright dot again. Also...sidenote. Off name batteries from ummm "the shack" sucked, and they were 14 bucks a piece too(needed them in a hurry). Dot was still dim so I got a new Duracell, and you guessed it, they were twice as bright! I'm learning the hard way. YMMV. Hope this helps...Good luck...Gavin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
