Send it to DAG otherwise if you try it yourself you'll turn it into a paper weight..

Rubbing may remove the coating save currency for a pro job...

If you are in the US, as suggested contact either Don Goldberg at DAG Camera or Sherry Krauter at Golden Touch. If you have haze a professional needs to work on the lens. Depending on how bad the condition is and who you use the repair could cost $100-125.
