How to Keep Readers Germ-Free.
The COVID-19 pandemic has heightened the importance of good hygiene habits and regularly disinfecting high-touch surfaces.
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends that washing hands and keeping high-touch surfaces clean are both essential precautions to lowering the risk of infections.
Quality microfiber cloths should be soft, lint-free, absorbent and should sanitize Reading Glasses without leaving any marks.
Since grease and grime can be harmful to your lenses and lens coatings, cleaning Reading Glasses properly is very important. It’s important to note that few cloths are safe for cleaning Reading Glasses and traditional cleaning cloths made of cotton or synthetic materials like nylon, can cause microscopic damage that ruins lenses over time. Fortunately, microfiber cloths effectively clean Reading Glasses.
ARE THERE DIFFERENT GRADES OF MICROFIBER?
Microfibers are measured in denier, which is the diameter of each fiber. By definition, microfiber must be lower than 1 denier, which is equal to 10 micrometers. Good quality microfiber towels for cleaning usually have below 0.5 denier. This makes it small enough to pick up a variety of germs, bacteria, and microbes.
When selecting a microfiber cleaning cloth for Reading Glasses, it’s very important to look for blends of 80 percent polyester to 20 percent polyamide. Weave is also important when selecting a microfiber cloth.
DO ALL MICROFIBER CLOTHS REMOVE BACTERIA?
Traditional disinfectants can kill most germs but do not remove them. Although microfiber cannot kill germs, its fibers can remove germs from different surfaces. After wiping away germs and bacteria, it’s important to rinse or wash microfiber cloths to eliminate any contamination
