shel6977 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I can't be the only one that's had this issue so I thought I would ask. I have a pair Oakley shooting glasses with g30 lenses and I have some over spray from the wind when painting steel. How do you get this off without scratching the lenses? Goo be gone with a microfiber towel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shel6977 Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 I guess I just assumed that those chemicals would not be good on lenses that aren't glass but I am wrong. Thank you for the responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ming the Merciless Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Contact Oakley and ask them. They may have a FAQ page with the information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebwake Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Soap and water with a microfiber cloth. Should come off unless you sprayed yourself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebwake Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Past that try rubbing alcohol. Dont use thinner on plastic lenses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RifleShooter Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Once upon a time my Oakleys were in an apartment while it was being painted. The painters used sprayers, and everything ended up with a fine mist of paint dots. The Oakleys were the only things that had no damage, as the paint came off with a fingernail. Most paint, like latex interior house paint, comes right off smooth plastic. Sent from my SM-P900 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Try a pencil eraser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan550 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Try a pencil eraser. NOT ON PLASTIC OR POLY LENSES!! On glass, that works most of the time, but NEVER on anything like shooting lenses in Oakley G30s! Also don't use thinner that has acetone in it, Denatured alcohol works OK but nothing stronger, as it will destroy the lenses. Alan~^~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikelax73 Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 A little acetone on a cloth will do the trick. Just be easy on how much you use lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
