Re: [OM] rear coating

[Giles]

Lee Hawkins tested a stuff I use called Opticlean.  I think I saved his 
post somewhere and could re-post it if anyone is interested.

Opticlean is a polymer you paint on which then dries quite quickly. 
You then peel off the polymer like a skin with the aid af a sticky label.  
Any dust grease and whatever is retained in the polymer.  The good thing 
about this stuff is there is absolutely no rubbing of the lens with 
anything so no possibility of abrasion.

Lee tested this stuff on first surface mirrors of telescopes in an 
observatory.
