Iceman I salute you!
Just cleaned my filthy dirty primary mirror, I bought a 12" Dob through the classifieds and the mirror was thick with dust and "stuff"!! Must have been in the garage for yonks!
Mike, I followed your awesomely easy step by step instructions from way back and it was a breeze::D
Had a bit of issue aligning the holes when putting the primary back into the OTA but taking out the mirror and cleaning was as easy as pie:)
Man the mirror looks brand new, just need to coliminate and I'm on my way.
Oh, and some clear sky's would be nice;)
This is the beauty of this site, the amount of good advice and information is never ending!

Thanks again Mike
