I have a 10 X 30 IS binocular [serial number deleted for privacy]. The rubberized coating is disintegrating and has become very sticky. I see others have had this problem with other high end models. How do I improve the condition or get them repaired? They work perfectly but are very uncomfortable to use.

I bought a 60w UV light on Amazon for less than 20 minutes and am now starting the 24 hour process with alum foil reflector. I’ll reply with results within 7 days. Wish me luck 🙂

I hope it works for you! Share the model number and wattage of the lamp if available.

RE: 12x36 IS III - The Ultra Violet light process did not work for me. It is still sticky.

I also have a pair of Canon 10 x 30 IS binoculars and the rubber on them has become very tar like and sticky. The sticky rubber comes off on my hands, making using the binoculars a very unpleasant experience. This seems to be a common problem with these binoculars. Does anyone know if the Canon IS II 10 x 30 suffers in the same way?
