For a long time, the use of very large mirror was devoted to astronomy observations. Due to the dimensions, the coating of such mirrors was a difficult challenge, but the precision on the value of the reflectance and the uniformity of the coating thickness were not very critical.
Now, such mirrors are designed for other applications and their specifications are at the moment very hard to achieve.
