... when you should've not even replied to (or, read) a google post.
I see the OP was a typical google poster. There are three english

I must disagree, It will clean the sensor, but it will really upset the
white balance and may make the whole unit unusable, please try with the
coloureds  .

You need only reflect that one of the best ways to get yourself a
reputation as a dangerous citizen these days is to go about repeating
