Ziffl3 Offline • • • • Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #8 · Bubble, weddings and lenses the bubble won't harm the coating ... but if you leave a bubble on and sit the lens in the sun on a hot day...it may become hard to clean. Most coating are done under high heat with evaporative material, another process would be in a tank using electric discharge method. Jul 10, 2012 at 05:49 PM

Scott Clark Offline • • • Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #9 · Bubble, weddings and lenses Modern exterior lens coatings are really tough. You'd really have to try and damage them...either a drop right on the element or cleaning it with sandpaper or something. Interior coatings can be pretty soft though, and very easy to damage. Spit on it, wipe it with your t-shirt, and the bubble is gone. Oh, and Doug--try a Dremmel tool with a felt polishing pad and a really mild abrasive (I've used cold cream believe it or not). That was with really old coatings though...you might need something more aggressive with the new stuff . Jul 10, 2012 at 06:04 PM

Damn things just wont flare quite right haha Pretty tough to do. the coating are probably a stack of different materials all measuring in the 100's of angstroms. there are different combinations that give different optical performance in different areas of visible and non visible light.
