Re: [ATM] Advice for shipping a 16" mirror

[Pete <lenses@adelphia.net>]

One thing to be careful of if they use the same packaging to send the 
mirror back is if the foam outgases and puts a film onto the newly 
coated mirror.
Just a heads up, not saying this will happen just to be aware that it might.
My .02 cents.
