How to clean borescope mirror

Borescope mirrors are for looking sideways with a borescope camera. Borescopes usually have a camera at the end of a long probe that can be inserted and maneuvered into tight areas for visual inspection. Examples include engine blocks, walls, electrical boxes, and other places that you need to look into to solve a problem. Borescope mirrors usually thread onto the end of the camera probe and, as you can imagine, keeping them clean is important if you want to have a clear view of your inspection area.
