Subject: [Leica] Question about Lens CLA/Cleaning
From: luisripoll at telefonica.net (Lluis Ripoll)

I've purchased an old Zeiss Jena Sonnar 2/85 the focusing was very  
tight and I've gave it to a local workshop to be CLA, the glass is in  
perfect condition but dusty. The man of the workshop will do again the  
correct lubrication and he said me too that at the same time he will  
clean the dust, soaped on petrol, I was very surprised and he said me  
that this is absolutely usual.

Can someone confirm me if this can not affect the fluorite coating of  
the Zeiss lenses or be maybe damaged?

Thank you very much!

Saludos cordiales
