Folks, I'm looking for a repair shop, preferrably in the US, that can poilsh and re-coat my vintage Canon 25/3.5 LTM lens. The front element is covered with scratches, as if someone tried to clean it with their shirt-tail or something. (I didn't see the scratches until Don Goldberg cleaned the haze out of it. 
)
John at FocalPoint can't do it, as his polishing machines won't work on a lens smaller than 3/4 inch in diameter, and the 25/3.5 is much smaller than that. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ari

That's really me
The recent video post about how optical lenses are made led to the JML Optical company. They have the facilities to build a lens from the ground up. They might be able to do something for a custom job on a small element.
