Hi everyone this is the first time I've posted to this board
I am returning to astronomy after a 20 year hiatus caused by university, work and children and I am currently refurbishing my telescope. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a mirror silvering service as my mirror is now basically transparent.
all the best
Cormac

Hi Cormac and welcome to the forum!
Unfortunately I know little about recoating a primary mirror although I am sure someone here can provide guidance and perhaps even a contact address.
Anyone?

Cormac McSparron - it can only be thou who trowels/ed through soil to reveal some interesting archaeological artefact or two?
If so, bl**dy small world.
Sorry, but I haven't a clue how to answer your question...but hopefully someone here has been of more help!
