Try alcohol, either drinking or rubing kind works...

Pretty much like 100 different solvents would work i cant list them all...

i would use a little cooking oil. thats what i use to clean resin off my hands. oil, then soap to wash the oil off.

i wouldnt use alcohol if the loupe was acrylic. it would be fine for glass though and less messy i guess.

Ethanol would be cleaner than oil dude and any extra would just evaporate.

Like others have already said alcohol should work. Plus it'll clean up and disinfect the loupe.

hey there yetiOG, i agree glass is better but acrylic is used a lot in optics these days. most spectacles have acrylic lenses. its also safer i guess.
