Sharp optics start with clean optics. Follow these quick tips to keep your Dink lenses performing at their best:
-
Rinse first. Blow off dust, then rinse with lukewarm water before wiping—micro-grit is what causes scratches.
-
Use lens cleaner + microfiber. Avoid shirts and paper towels.
-
Anti-fog the right way. Apply a sport-safe anti-fog (or use frames with ventilation) for steamy indoor sessions.
-
Store smart. Use a hard case so lenses don’t get knocked around in your paddle bag.
-
Match your tint to the day.
• Green for green/yellow balls in sun/shade
• Violet for red/orange/pink balls
• Natural for all colors in low light/indoor LEDs
Reminder for over-40 players: Medium-light tints usually reveal more spin and depth. Keep your Green and Natural ready for variable conditions; add Violet if your facility runs warm-tone balls.
Clean lenses + the right tint = earlier ball pickup and more confident strokes.
