Not sure if this the thread to post but, where can I get the reflector re-coated in the USA? It's a 9" aluminum reflector from my professional favorite.

If Phoenix Electroformed does not work, look for "optical coating services" such as ESCO. I am not sure about affordability for 1-time job though.

Hello,

I am currently in contact with a company in Ohio who does reflective coatings for telescopes, lighting and others. I am driving out to them this week to drop off my 19" parabolic reflector for my searchlight. Will let you know the quality, price and whether or not I would recommend them.

I am working on a restoration of a searchlight, being on this forum just reading through the forums has helped so much already!
