Product Description
PEC-PAD Lint Free Wipes 4"x4" 100per/Pkg. PEC PADs are the ideal photo wipes for those who hate photowipes! Until PEC PADs came along, photowipes fell apart, left lint and scratched emulsions. PEC PADs are extremely strong, lint-free and so soft and pure it is almost impossible to scratch an emulsion with them. PEC PADs are so soft they can be safely used to clean all types of sensitive surfaces: scanners, CD's, mirrors, lenses, telescopes etc. PEC PADs are available in two convenient sizes. The 4 x 4 inch (10 cm.sq.) wipes are perfect for cleaning 35mm and other small areas; the 9 x 9 inch (25 cm.sq.) wipes are best suited for larger film or print formats, murals, scanners etc.

PEC-PADs are small squares of paper useful for cleaning lenses, mirrors, scanner/copier beds, etc. They are soft and essentially lint free. To my knowledge, no paper or cloth is absolutely lint free so if you, like another reviewer, go looking for fibers with a jeweler's loupe you'll probably find some. Fortunately, if they are so small they can only be seen under significant magnification, they will cause you no image degradation.
I do encourage users to keep the opened packages in a clean, dust-free environment such as a small plastic food container. If dust settles on the pads it can be transferred to the lens. In fact, it is quite easy to pick up some grit from any number of sources, including the glass surface, itself, and then abrade the lens inadvertently. In other words, " ultra soft and lint-free" refers to the virgin pads and should not lead one to a false sense of security.
My only other objection is the obscenely high price. That, alas, is to be expected with specialty items of this type. Buy from Amazon or a reliable internet seller such as Adorama or BH and you'll save money over camera store prices.
In short, a good product that performs exactly as described.

Good price through Adorama (Amazon supplier).

The Pec Pad is exactly as advertised. I used them to clean archived 35mm kodachrome slides. The pads allowed even application of the cleaning solution. The pads also removed the solution with out leaving any streaks or lint. Overall, the product performs as expected. The only thing is that the package is a bit difficult to open without exposing all the pads. A fairly minor issue though.

Excellent Wipes For Slides
These work well for many things, but I'm using them for 35mm slide cleaning. The are just excellent for that purpose.

Spotless world
I would recommend these wipes to all digital photographers who are do-it-yourselfers! If your camera allows for manual sensor cleaning, there are no better wipes out there.

NICE EXTRA TO HAVE
Great product for just wiping of the scanner, copier, or an old picture before making a copy. Works nicely for just a quick dust job anywhere else!

No lint!
Better than the old fashioned lens paper that leaves lint behind. Use with a high quality lens cleaning liquid on delicate optics, can be used dry on less critical items.

Glasses, lenses
I use these for camera lenses and for my glasses (which my infant daughter insists are easier for me to use with her thumb prints on them...she is wrong). They work great. Read more

Truly Lint Free. Great For Lenses and Glasses. Not So Easy For...
I use these with my D700, and they are FANTASTIC for my 24-70 lens, both inside and out. However, trying to clean the sensor with them isn't quite as easy as advertised. Read more

They're OK
As it turns out, I haven't even used these that much, as I find that I didn't really need them. So I can't give a more detailed review on this product.
