Antifouling spots on my specs! - how can I remove them?

Got various spots of International antifouling on my clothes earlier in the week, which came out in the wash easily. But now, 3-4 days after doing the job, I've noticed that my plastic lenses have small spots of blue antifouling on them.

Any easy way to remove them, as I'm nervous about anything too severe even though they're "scratch resistant"?

Thanks in advance

I would try soaking them overnight in water, possibly with some washing up liquid. That may soften the antifoul.

Ask the anti foul manufacturer, there may know of something?

With Tiger Extra by Hempel spots I used white spirit on my oldish pair and they came up a treat.I had been prepared for the coating to suffer and produce a total white out , but no, they have never been cleaner or clearer !

Try putting Jiff of Ciff on the paint overnight. Wipe off, DON'T rub.

A fingernail will remove them easily and will not scratch the lens. I speak from experience.

Thanks for the tips, a smearing of Swafega overnight did the trick :encouragement:
