Can i use nail polish to clean my panasonic lumix camera lense?


I want to clean my camera lense cause it has hand prints all over the lense, but i can find any solutions to clean it with , does anyone know where they sell it in the uk

NO! NO! NOOO! Do not use nail polish remover to clean your lens, unless you want to destroy your camera!!

To clean your lens:
1) Use a blower to blow any loose debris off your lens.
2) Add some lens cleaning solution to a microfiber cloth (optical cleaning cloth) or exhale (don't spit!) onto the lens to put water vapor on the lens.
3) Use the microfiber cloth to wipe the lens in a circular motion.

A lens pen will also work--it has a special cleaning tip on it.

In the UK, go to jessops.com and then select accessories then cleaning supplies. You'll find plenty of cleaning kits. AND no nail polish remover!

No, no, no! I assume that you mean nail polish remover, but don't do it. The lens might be made of plastic and you will immediately ruin it. The lens probably has optical coatings on it and you will remove them.

If you can not find any official lens cleaning papers or fluids, try this...

Wash your hands. Put the tiniest little dab of a mild dishwashing liquid on your fingertip. Practically rinse it off from your finger tip and ONLY THEN rub the lens with your slightly soapy finger tip. Rinse your finger and then use a piece of soft facial tissue that does nto have any aloe or lanolin or lotion added to it to rinse the soap off. Wet the tissue and squeeze it out. Wipe the lens while changing the part of the tissue that you are using repeatedly so that you finally have removed all of the soap. Using another tissue, gently dry your lens.

All of this is only in case you can't find the proper stuff, don't forget. It will work with minimal risk to the lens, but keep the rest of your camera DRY!
