You should be able to get it cleaned/repaired, Malcolm Taylor in England can do such work, he had my III for overhaul, the 5cm Elmar needed attention and he exchanged the rear cemented pair of elements for another from his stock, but the curvature of the elements and the actual focal length of the lens need to be taken into account. Exchanging lens elements is not for the amateur really!
