    I have plenty of Kryptok oil, but I can not find Ultex grease anywhere. Would you have a tub or two of that laying around?

    Johns has my tub of Ultex grease. But I do have an Ultex wrench you'll need to open it.

    For those Newbies who don't know what Ultex grease is: It is a grease type film that is applied to the outside of a Diving Mask Lense to keep it dry and easy to see through underwater.

    OK, I'll admit it.............I plead guilty to going to 3 labs looking for the AO lens stretcher when I was an errand boy for my father. When the dawning occurred I went into the Lowes Poli theater in Springfield and caught the afternoon matinee. Came back into the office at 4:55 and said couldn't find one anywhere. We closed at 5. They had a good laugh and I got paid to go to the movies. Good deal all around!

    I could use on of those lens stretchers. By any chance do you have a bottle of scratch remover?

    Hey! The lab guys told me the optical centers came in a box! No wonder I never found them! Dang! Thanks for clearing that up, though....this thread is terrific!
