We have developed and introduced, along with one of the UK's leading coating designers, a new aluminium coating with enhanced multi layered overcoats to increase the reflectivity of telescope mirrors to almost 97% over a wide range of the visible spectrum.

All coatings are carried out in our own optical coating laboratory with state-of-the-art computer controlled coating plants. This arrangement allows us to ensure we test every single coating we apply for optimal performance.

If you require any help or advice about recoating, please contact us using this email link . . .

Any mirror, new or old, can have Hilux coating. We have a downloadable chart (please use download button below) which shows prices for most common sizes. You will also find a lot of useful information on the Optical Coatings Page via the INFORMATION Page which can be accessed from the OPTICS pull-down menu above.
