55% Relative Humidity here, 16c in the room, and a large open flame. It\'s the storage/work room tho. The rest of the house is 48% @ 21c
BTW, you do NOT need any special cleaners, pads, nor other hoku$-poku$ to do a wet cleaning.
50:50 Water and rubbing alcohol and a q-tip swab, plus a #4 natural hair paint-brush and a squeezy blower will work just fine.
Get the Q-tip moderately wet with the solution and rub it all over the sensor surface - do not apply much more pressure than the weight of the q-tip.
Wrap a lens-tish around the other end of the q-tip and lightly stroke the sensor surface till there are no streaks. Streaks ALWAYS indicate a presence of oil or some other sludge-like gunk. So if you get streaks repeat this process several times with new q-tip and lens tish.
The last step is to \"sweep up\" any lose particles. Apply copious amounts of your water/alcohol to the #4 brush. Use the blower to blow into the brush whiskers until perfectly dry - repeat several times. Now that you have a perfectly dry, particle and oil free brush slowly pump air across the sensor surface while \"sweeping\" with the paint-brush.
