I can't remember who was the genius who suggested residual oil remover as a
"solution" for a fogged collapsible Summicron.

The coating on the lens *is* worn and I'll send it off to be recoated,
*but* this stuff is amazing.  I'm pretty obsessive about clear optics, but
when the package arrived from B & H today, I cleaned lenses that I
*thought* were clean and actually found *black* stuff on the lens tissue.
Woah!  Can't recommend it highly enough. Thanks for the tip!
