: I am refurbishing a 30 year old 10" Cave. The black tar or whatever they used on the inside of the tube has a lot of cracks in it. What do people recommend for this. Just flat black paint over the cracks or what?
Hi Dave,
A lot of people recommend using black Black Board paint. It is available at Home Depot and Lowes stores in both spray and brush on. I'm restoring a Cave Cassegrain and that is what I will use on the inside of the tube.
