Pentax DA 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 AF

I've been using the Bausch & Lomb sight savers wipes (available at Costco and Zeiss wipes at Sam's) on my eyeglasses for a long time and occasionally on my 717 lens. How safe are these to use on Canon EF lenses or am I better off just using the traditional method of solution and lens tissues? Thanks!

Where did you get it for $7? The lenspen site has it (LP-1) for $16.95 and the same price for the mini (MP-1). I'm interested to find out where you bought it.

Mo stuff-
Nevermind, amazon has it for $6.50. I just needed to google it and voila! OK, update: circuitcity.com has the Sima lens pen for $5.59 web special.
