After looking at a scope in the classifieds I contacted Saintech to get an idea of pricing for recoating a mirror.

Since there have been a number of queries over the years, for those interested, here is a PDF of their current pricing.

I have no connection with the company.

Seems quite expensive. Just about buy a new coated mirror for the same price. I was able to buy a new 14"f5.1 Hubble optics mirror for US$366 a few years ago. If I was to recoat it would cost AU$460.
