I’ve got a spot on my XT-4 sensor, I’m quite happy to clean it myself.

Any recommend swab kits to use please?

Many thanks indeed ;)
 
I use Pec pads and Eclipse fluid and make my own swabs by wrapping a pad around a slice cut from an old credit card and taping it in place. Add a drop or two of fluid and clean. It might sound like a faff but it takes seconds to make a swab and in use the card flexes and therefore limits the amount of pressure that can be applied to the sensor.
 
Many thanks Alan ;)

Really? Most people think I'd stingy and just buy the pre made swabs :D

A packet of pads and a bottle of fluid does last a long time though, if you are considering doing it this way.
 
Can be fun trying to get the sensor to stay still. Can't remember how I did it on my X-H1 but it involves switching IBIS off which took me a while IIRC.
