One- I am looking for an original negative carrier. I have come across a really nice VALOY II, even the baseboard looks good, and I'd like to restore it to the original condition. Two- it has what appears to be an anti-newton condenser- it is 'frosted' and seems to have a very smooth matte surface. I would like to know the best way to clean both surfaces of the condenser- both the smooth top and the matte finished bottom surface. ANy other tips on making the focusing helix smoother, and lubrication recommendations would be more than welcome! Thanks for all replies! Dan
