How do I clean the brush?

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No complex setup is required for the Nikon Lens Pen. To prepare for use, simply slide the brush housing to reveal the bristles for initial cleaning. When switching to the polishing tool, ensure the lens surface is dry and free of large debris. To prolong the life of the tool, always replace the cap on the polishing tip when not in use to prevent the compound from drying out or collecting airborne dust. This tool is compatible with all high-end camera lenses, glass filters, and viewing optics.
