It may be time to break out my airbrush then.
Not really sure if the gloss in the tubes has given me any problems, but it makes sense that it would. I do get some weird lighting sometimes when i do use them though.
I have the Sigma lense completely dissasembled. It had multiple issues when I bought it.
If you have an airbrush, any solvent based paint thinned enough to go through the spray tip should suffice. Any flat black paint should do but for high strength and best adhesion, high temperature paint meant for refinishing Propane BBQ might be the best available.
If your Sigma is completely disassembled, give it a go. I no longer have the AT-22 but an AT-23 seem to share that somewhat shiny ridged ring. I haven't noticed any ill effect from that, I'll have to pay attention when I use the extension tubes next time.
Thanks,
