Mirror coatings

Looking for a economical mirror coater that does enhanced coatings. I know of some major ones like spectrum, just trying to see if there are any off beat guys I should look into. BTW the mirror is a 12.5" and I am not entirely dead set on enhanced coatings, so feel free to try and talk me out of it.
Thanks,
Todd

L&L and Spectrum will do Enhanced. Spectrum only charges another $25 for Enhanced and they are very good. L&L is west coast and Spectrum is east coast.
I have had good luck with both, but enhanced is not my choice of coatings.
Listen to the mirror makers that are considered the best. Give them a call or read their posts and then decide.
I won't repost all the info that has been posted before, I will let you go and find it.
