Pipe Repair
Does anybody know of a good source for pipe refreshing? I have several Castello's and Dunhill's that need a thorough cleaning.
Thanks

I read about a dealer of estate pipes who will do extra strong ozonation and restoration.
What goes into refreshing? I'm figureing ream real well, alcohol scrub inside, and then just a general exterior clean and buff? |

A refresh is easy but time consuming. Any of those three fellows will do a fine job.

I went with Walker. Left all three vm about their process. Did not expect a call back until Monday.
Walker called me back three hours later and spent 30 minutes getting to know me and explaining his process.
