The Glowforge Pro laser cutter should be cleaned regularly to ensure its optimal operation.
You will need task wipes, all-purpose cleaner, and industrial optical cleaner. Do not use any other kind of towel since you will risk scratching the glass and sensitive optical components.
Step 2
Start by thoroughly cleaning both sides of the glass with the all-purpose cleaner. It may take multiple passes to totally clear off all the gunk. You will also want to clean the tube at the back of the GlowForge.
