not to hijack - but seems not worth a separate thread.
Is it possible to clean a telescope mirror?
About 30 years ago i bought Dad a 6" Meade mirror out of Sky&Telescope magazine.
We built a simple Newtonian with a redwood twelve sided tube. Local astronomy club deemed it "handsome" which Dad enjoyed tremendously.
It has now sat for fifteen years since his death and is quite dusty.
Is this something an amateur can do, or should i mail it someplace?
Suggestions welcome -
