Be careful with compressed air. The folks at Leupold told me not to use compressed air cause grit can act like a sand blaster, and put deep scratches in the glass. Instead, they told me to just rinse the optic really well under running water before doing any wiping at all. Then is necessary, use soapy water with a cotton swab and very light pressure to remove any finger / cheek prints. They said acetone and a cotton swab is fine also, if they've been rinsed first to remove any grit that might be present, which there usually is some.
It was either me or one of my Son's, don't remember, but one of us spilled a soda pop all over a pair of 10x42 Leupolds and didn't realize it until it had dried on for a couple days. I filled the sink with warm soapy water, let them soak for a few minutes, then just rinsed them off real well, and then one more rinse with distilled water so they wouldn't have water spots after drying. But compressed air is a no, no on dirty optics, clean one's I suppose, but it's not necessary, or recommended.
