C14 Corrector

Hi All

This a C14 that my friends and I acquired as a project to restore. It's a black tube starbright coatings from either late 80s or early 90s. The front was very dusty and dirty but surprisingly came off easily with dabbing distilled water. The back is another story. Speaking to Dr Clay who is really a nice guy with fast responses. He advised it looks like mildew to him and not out gasing. I have also spoken tok Don at Bintel another great bloke (helped me many times) with my questions and cleaning optics for me in the past. Don said to try the uhtc same stuff as Dr Clay's mixture. We are going to give this a whirl.

One thing we did not was a small dab of 99% isopropyl seems to clear it for a short time when the alcohol evaporates the haze is back.

Anyone seen anything like this and has any success. Appreciate any advise feedback.

Thx
Fahim
