Hello. I have a Polaroid 180 that I am trying to restore. The front element of the Tominon 114mm lens has fungus on it. I need to remove the front element to clean the back side, but i can't figure out how to remove it. I was able to remove the rear lens because it has slots. The front plastic section that contains the info on it does not have slots. I tried to unscrew it but it won't budge...not sure if it is supposed to unscrew. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, RC
