Coatings

Hi All

A fascinating forum you have here

I have a question

Can lens's be re-coated?

I have a pair of Pentax 10x50 binocs, about 1986 vintage I suppose

Once at an Adelaide GP one of my enthusiastic friends decided my binocs were covered in fuel and did his best to wipe off the strange colouring effect (unobserved by me and others)

To whit I now have a damned fine pair of binocs lacking coatings of light filtering goodness

Needless to say I was a bit 'annoyed' about this but there was nothing I could do/say, he was, in all honesty trying to do the right thing..........

Anyways, I have always wondered if it was repairable?
