Are you wanting them polished. Send them to me and I will do it for cost of parts. I am working on starting my own business and want to develop a name for myself. I won't mess with polishing. Just a good breakdown of what cleaning and replacement. If you want to change jets I can do that too.

Are you offering this service to any other members?  Do you have an ultrasonic cleaning machine?

What will you be charging for a rebuild? What will your process involve?
All you gotta do is do what you gotta do.

I'm doing 2 for free. I have 1. You buy the kit you want and I will disassemble, clean, and reassemble. I want to do 2 free to establish that I do good work. After that I will decide on a price.

I thought I had another set put have not heard from the guy.

I emailed you asking for your address, you replied that I need new floats [dont necessarily agree] and you didnt send mailing address.

Having second thoughts so you can pass your offer on to someone else.

Thanks anyway

You don't necessarily need new floats I was just making a suggestion.
