use 5 minute AB epoxy to stick the optics to the mounts.
but it sounds like you probably need to start by getting new optics.

Goes to peel from the Dichros, pulls the mirrors off the mounts (The Dichroic surface seems intact)!
So, I have nice clean mirrors (I got the First Contact off after they came off the mounts) but now have to stick them back to the brass micro flex mounts (they are smaller than the standard flex mounts) and I will have to realign them all over again.
What is best to stick the dichros to the brass? And should I recoat the mirrors with First Contact to protect them while glueing?
Edit: Seem I was mistaken about the dichroic surfaces being intact, They're not! Seems the glass came away from the coatings and has left the coatings stuck to the mounts. Can I just glue them back as is or should I remove the coatings from the mounts first?
suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.
