I just did a search on the M645, and found an old thread that talked about the foam in the prism causing deterioration of the mirror silver. There was a picture, and it looks very similar to mine, so it looks like that's the problem, and I would assume the mirror is beyond cleaning or repair. So, while it's a little annoying when looking through, it really isn't a problem, so I think I'm going to leave well enough alone for now. Maybe one day when I've caught up with all the other projects on the list....
