Any issues?
Do they get burns?
I am currently using these for 2 of my 3 mirrors (simply haven't taken time to replace the final mirror yet). I continue to get top performance out of mine. I think they are LESS prone to dirt, smudges, smoke, etc. They are also MUCH easier to clean and less apt to be scratched in the process.

This is encouraging good news, so I have ordered my mirror holders but no mirrors, saving some money.
Hopefully one day I will be able to post my results... (machine under construction)

I have asked for carefully being packaged. Will go and check them, but I'm pretty sure there will be many useful ones.

All I need to do is make or purchase rings for the mirrors so they fit centered in the mirror mounts.

I then thought that if this is smoke from wood sap, then perhaps something good for sap would clean it. I reached over and found my bottle of "goof off" tar and sap remover and it immediately removed the film. I then rinsed the mirror with methanol to remove the goof off. Works Great!
I still have my gold mirror in place and I have a few spare gold mirrors, so it will be a while before I need to swap to these hard drive mirrors, but presumably the goof off would work on the hard drive mirrors too.
