Hello There...

I really don't know Melen if you screwed something or not! But i really hope you didn't..

At the same time, i totally agree with Gradient and OnSlow! Very good advices! Now here is my advice..

Never ever use any cleaning kits no matter how good you are but a fiber cloth!! That is the only thing you can use if you are not pro in cleaning the sensors! Also specially with Canon Products.. They are tricky and built totally differently fron any other brand in the market!

Now i am going to add another hint that you all might get surprised or even laugh at me.. I carry 5 Canon high end products with about 27 lenses!

When it comes to clean my equipment! I use (DRY AIT CAN)!!!! i shake it well for about 30 Secs.

Let it cool down for about 10 Secs and then clean the sensor 2 sprays by 2 sec each and then the mirror with the same thing! I blow my lens also with the same can and then whipe them with the Fiber Cloths! Another blow and thats it!!

Here is one more thing! When ever you feel the can gets colder! Let is warm up to normal, other wise it will spray lequid and that will spoil everything! Sigh!

I really don't recommend any one to do this unless they know what are they doing! That is the best way to clean without any hastle and 100% clean! But so dangerous at the same time!

Thank you and hope things will go fine. Now have a nice day/night and weekend
