    Best person to send your reels for cleaning/service

    Got some issues with some lews and I think they just need a person who works on them all the time. Let me know who ya like!

    Trey Harpel at THkustoms. He is a board sponsor and does an excellent job.

    My 12 year old son does them for $10 a reel. He has done 50-60 so far and all perfect. All high dollar reels and all good. I told him next winter he needs to start a little business. He is very meticulous and does a phenomenal job. I'm going to get him an ultrasonic cleaner and my thoughts are all the people I know want their stuff done in the winter so ready for spring. He did 30 over christmas break this past year. Currently he strips down to shell and uses Q tips and a tooth brush to clean each piece ( I bought him reel cleaner kits). He knows what gets oil and what gets grease. He has watched lots of Youtube videos and I let him learn on a couple of my old bait casters to make sure he knew what he was doing. He says its extremely simple...I laugh when I see the parts all over the table. Takes him about 35 mins/reel. I bought him a new Lews a few months ago and he stripped it down. I asked why and he said the manufacturers put too much grease in so he redid it. All I can do is laugh but he showed me his info on the computer where he read this. Beats the hell out of playing fort nite all the time
