Hello!

    I've read a few posts on the use of red rouge after cerium oxide.  How
significant is the difference between surfaces polished with cerium oxide
and red rouge?  In other words, is the effect noticeable so that I should
finish my mirror wiht a period of figuring with red rouge?  I'm making a
Dall-Kirkham, especially for planetary viewing, but if red rouge won't
improve the performance of the scope over what cerium oxide would provide,
I'd prefer to skip it.  Thanks and best regards.

Mike
