Default AP Refurb

Friends of mine is looking to get his APs refurbed after his valet man has ruined them using unfriendly wheel cleaners.

Anyone any good recommendations?
Cheers in advance,
Barry

Godspeed do the full refurb bit. Ap can do a service but they don't paint.

Buy seal kit from questmead and replace seals by yourself....

if I can do it anyone can - even Smac


tools needed

footpump
block of wood (to chock the pistons as you pump)
blunt flat bladed screwdriver, to pry out seal

plus gas/dismantling fluid
maybe a source of heat to loosen bleed nipple
8 or 10mm socket for nipple
brake fluid
brake cleaner


I then got a mate to paint mine gloss black, i think it cost me a few bacon butties and some beer
