Just to put my two bobs worth in my Lunt Cak 1200 Blocking filter had a dirty fingerprint on it. As Peter says most of these things don't effect performance .These things happen.I also havs a few adhesive blobs here and there but if its working fine don,t touch it.As for the scope itself I would say that my Lunt PT 100 is the best Astronomical purchase I have yet made.
Still if you are not happy I would check with your supplier and get these problems addressed. Good luck with your Solar venture.
