[pure-silver] Re: (Slightly) OT: mirror and OM4

RE: [pure-silver] Re: (Slightly) OT: mirror and OM4I would think this one in 
such a critical area might justify a trip to someone that's done it before.  
Even if it has to be shipped, this sounds like its in a very critical area and 
its one I wouldn't mess with at all.

  Thanks for the reply, Bil, I'll check it out.

  The old glue is not on the mirror (i's a "half pass through" mirror, can't 
find the right name right now, the spot meter is behind it).

  Should I be concerned about the fact that the new glue on top of the old glue 
will elevate the mirror  a tiny bit, I mean will it influendce focussing?

  Best,

  Cor

  I may be completely wrong here about glue to use, but
  I'll give you one suggestion.  Sold at builders supply
  is a white glue called WELD BOND.

  I'd be reluctant to try very hard at removing the old
  glue.  The mirror is a first surface mirror, and you
  could actually remove the surface plating.  If I were
  in the same situation, I consider leaving the old glue
  in place and I'd get some WELD BOND and a flat
  toothpick and put a very small amount in the same
  areas that the glue was in before.

  I am not suggesting this is the best way, maybe
  someone else knows something better, but that is what
  I might try if it were me.
