If you are good technically and have a fair amount of mechanical abality then Manuals are available for $15~$25 . The Supermatic series of shutters rate a 2.3 on a scale of 5 for dificulity to repair.
http://www.flutotscamerarepair.com/ gets a lot of referals and comments of quality work.
http://www.skgrimes.com/ is also very good but more expensive.
Several other persons have been mentioned on this fourm for shutter repair but one may have to wade through a lot of post to find them.
Unscrew the cells from the shutter, a rubber strap wrench or jar opener may be needed, and clean the inside of the cell. Lubericant can gass out and leave a film and crud on the inside surface of the lens giving the appearance fungus, seperation, and/or scratches to name a few lens faults it mimiks.
I have found heavyweight microfiber lens cleaning cloth to be the best for cleaning lens.
