There used to be a mob near Epping (Artarmon my son just reminded me) where they sold amazing, expensive telescopes and recoated mirrors but from what I've been told it's long gone and the owner passed away.
They messed my mirror up but there's a chance that's when the owners health went downhill and it wasn't done properly (or not completed). Wayne Sainty did me a huge favour and recovered my mirror to the best of his ability at minimal charge but some scratches done by the previous attempts just couldn't be removed.
Still, it's a top class coating that should last for years, minor scratches don't affect my usage of the 8" newt which is only for visual use.
