Photonic Cleaning Technologies provides non-toxic, inert polymer systems designed to remove dust, fingerprints, residues and other contamination from delicate, sensitive, and precision surfaces without scratching or damaging in any way. First Contact™ polymer film protects optics from physical and chemical damage during assembly, shipping and storage.

FIRST CONTACT™ polymer solutions clean and protect nanostructures, precision surfaces and optics composed of glass, fused silica, silicon, crystals, non-linear crystals, metals, Ge, ZnSe, NaCl, KBr, KRS-5, first surface mirrors and telescope optics. First Contact™ polymers also clean and protect diffraction gratings, phase masks, and pinholes! Smooth or rough, flat or curved; AR and reflective coatings. The fluid solution conforms to any surface but the polymer film releases easily, removing all particulate and organic contaminants.

CAUTION: The polar organic solvents in First Contact™ polymer solutions dissolve certain plastics like polycarbonates. DO NOT USE FIRST CONTACT™ TO CLEAN PLASTIC EYEGLASS LENSES.

NOW FIRST CONTACT™ IS AVAILABLE IN RED! New Red First Contact™ is a polymer solution using red polymers. The red is not a colouring added to the solvent system. The colour is in the polymer so it cannot leave anything behind. Like clear First Contact™, it leaves no residue.
