Re: [ATM] Silvering Woes

James,

We may be getting an old vacuum chamber going again up at the 
observatory where we do mirror making sessions.  We need to get a new 
diffuser pump and such. But I had a question in regards to the 
protective coating.  How do you put a coating of protective silicon over 
the aluminum?  In a similar fashion?

Thanks
Jason
