The cleaning of optical surface by pulsed radiation from a fiber laser is an effective method that can recover optical properties of the mirror surface. The possibility of cleaning metallic mirrors from films with complex composition by pulsed radiation from a fiber laser has been experimentally researched. It has been shown that the high initial reflection characteristics of optical elements can be recovered by choosing regimes of radiation effect on the deposited surface.
