So I have a 200mw spartan green laser from dragonlasers.com,

recently ive noticed a big X on my laser dot, and a few more little lines. Ive tried to clean if off with alot of things like damp cloth, wet tissue, alochol. But the X and lines just wont go away, its really annoying, anyone know a method to clean it off? Or is it permanent micro straches on the lense??

How about some clearly focused pictures of your "X" problem...

You could also shoot the pic with a pair of Laser Safety Glases
over the camera lens.

What happened to make this first appear ???

BTW... you can easily ADD to or EDIT your posts by clicking
the [EDIT] button on the bottom of each of your posts.
This way you avoid Double Posting when not necessary..:beer:

Idk what or how it first appeared, but It was a normal clear dot with no lines or X, then i used it just last week, and noticed an X, so i removed the cap and wiped the lense with some moistened screen wipes. But that did not work and the X remained, so i tired a bunch of other things and none of them worked also

Have you tried 99% Isopropyl Alcohol (Rubbing Alcohol)
and a Q-Tip swab. Rub it gently to not scratch the lens and
don't use so much that it runs into the lens holder.

Yeah I have, and compressed air, both of which did not work and the X/lines remained. Which is kinda leading me to believe that it is micro straches.. maybe..

If you're able to detach the lens then just buy a new one on the web, they're really cheap.
