Flocking baffles.....
Hi Asro78 - yeah, I knows about baffles, been around for centuries (possibly) - I reckon any half-decent refractor would have 'em: but this flocking paper; I seem to remember a conversation with Alan Gould (apologise if it wasn't you Alan) which gave me the impression it was like wall-papering the inside of a tube (ie scope.) Wall-papering a wall's *** hard enough, let alone a tube: what's your comments Astro?
ps - when I speak about "good quality paint" I'm really referring to stuff that I mix up in my capacity as a pro artist: we have additives that are special optical "flatteners" that we can add to polymers to get "flats" you just can't imagine from commercial products - though I'd reckon that this flocking paper (by the name) has some sort of textured surface to break up/reduce the reflected, scattered light's effects even more?
Cheers, Darryl.
