<P>Doug,</P>
<P>This is great! Perfect! Thank you. Looks like I'm on my way to Home Despot. I wondered what it was, but alcohol and nail polish didn't faze the coating. This mutar cost me $20, and I've already learned a lot from it. And it still works, in fact better than when I got it. So I figure that I'm already ahead.</P>
<P>Perhaps you will elucidate on long-wave UV work? What does that mean? Maybe that's an application for my newly modified Mutar.</P>
<P>Cheers!</P>

<DIV></DIV>Gary,
<DIV></DIV>I recently removed the coating from a lens with (brace yourself) paint
<DIV></DIV>remover ("Jasco" Premium Paint and Epoxy Remover), it worked great! It
<DIV></DIV>took everything off in one application, I applied two just to be certain
<DIV></DIV>and then cleaned the elements well. If you are working on something that
<DIV></DIV>has real value you may want some other opinions; in my case I was working
<DIV></DIV>on an inexpensive "E" series Nikkor that I bought specifically to remove
<DIV></DIV>the coating from for long-wave UV work.
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Good luck,
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Doug
