LOTS of wiring, dual battery setup, Solar charging system, with some random lights spread around here and there.

Is there anyone on here that knows how to clean the DSLR lenses? I have 2 lenses from my Olympus camera that have been sitting over a year now because they got some fine silt in them it seems and grinds when it is adjusted. Talked with a local shop here and they want almost 400 to do both the lenses. Can anyone help me out here for less than that?
