I have a mid-30's mirror/clock that needs resilver I was told that it cannot be done and leave the space for the clock face "open". And that the dots that mark the 12, 3, 6, and 9 would be eliminated. I was also told that where the gasket was between the clock and the mirror would prevent the silver from adhering to the glass.
So what is correct? Who do you fellows recommend? THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!!

Some body left the engine running in their mouth. No truth to what you listed. A resilvering job will leave the precise hole for the clock (providing you give them the instructions.) Truthfully, I can't vouch for the placement of the 3,6,9,12, marks. What mirror has those numbers on the glass? Contact me directly and we will get you fixed up.

Ray,
Thanks for answering my query about the mirror. Will you, pls, send me your email address. Mine is jjwj5169@hotmail.com
Do I understand that you resilver mirrors? Pls give me a cost estimate. Does your process give the glass the original grey tint look.
My clock in electric. Rather than having it rebuilt and risking future problems, my thoughts are to have the mechanism replaced with a quartz movement. Your thoughts are welcome and appreciated.
Thank you! JOhnny

In my last post, click on the envelope with the man standing by it and send me an email.
