? You mean the plastic dome that protects the LED and holds the thing together? Its an acrylic polymer I beliefe I think that a glasses micro fiber clothe would be best. Keep it dry alcohol could crack it if its acrylic.

I can tell you from unfortunate personal experience that even fairly low percent alcohol will cause the dome of a Luxeon to crack. I usually just use a lense tissue, maybe with a little water if necessary.
