Unlike many people who
service these shutters I do it properly ― with over 30 years experience
I have learned that there are no shortcuts. I have read with horror how
some people simply dump the entire shutter in an ultrasonic cleaner or
worse yet flush naphtha through the shutter, blow it dry and call it
ready to go ― this actually does far more harm than good. I completely
disassemble the shutter, clean, degrease and relubricate each blade and
part individually, using only the finest NYE™
synthetic lubricants, specific to each application. Please contact me
with any questions you might have.
The cost of this
overhaul is $119.95 and includes return shipping in the US via insured
USPS Priority Mail. International please add $24.95
