Smudge in upper right corner, cleaning suggestion
Hi,
On day two of working with this amazing device, have noticed after doing a few demos for people, a small smudge has appeared in the upper right corner of the FOV area. I have used the included cloth to wipe down the front of the hololens, but i am weary to do so to the treated area we look through. Any suggestions on how to approach the smudge removal without making things worse?

@echolden the microfiber cloth provided is pretty much the same thing professional photographers use to clean high end lens.
If you are careful to keep the microfiber cloth clean (store it in the plastic sleeve and only use it on the lens and not as a general purpose rag) it is a pretty safe way to clean the HoloLens (as well as eye glasses, lens etc.)
What is your concern that makes you "weary"?

Just didn't want to scratch anything that is delicate. Will microfiber it up. I guess just like with a new car, you don't want to mess anything up by doing something stupid the first week out (is where my weariness comes from).
Have any suggestions to clean the Holo Lens Head Band ? Ive done a few demos and was very careful about keeping it clean but one person had on makeup .
