I have two SLR 576's with date codes on the stanchion for late 1955,
apropirate for the 100. Unfortunately, the oriignal reflectors are rusty, and
need re-silvering. I have tried gently to persuade the lens to come apart from
the reflector, but without luck. Is there a solvent or some other trick (eg.,
hot water) that does it? I have a source for the silverplating; it's just
getting the unit apart that is seemingly impossible without busting them.
