Propeller repair
 

I dinged one of my labbed wheels today. Who/what shop do you recommend to repair?

Re: Propeller repair
 

Make sure it's a shop who is experienced with lab finished props and not just the shop down the street who usually works on aluminum props. The blade area needs to be maintained, the nick shouldn't just be ground down. Depending on the size of the nick the area may need to be welded and then refinished. When it's finished you shouldn't be able to tell a repair was ever made to it.

Thanks, It is not nicked though it is bent. I guess I should have been more specific.

Re: Propeller repair
 

Of course, it really depends on the severity of the bend. But in many cases we have had no problems repairing damaged lab props. Please feel free to call me with any questions you may have.

Likewise, we make repairs to Lab Finished props daily. Matt is correct in that you should not be able to tell it was ever damaged when the repair is made. If you have any questions on pricing and lead times, please give us a call.

Thank you.

UPDATE........
Julie @ Throttleup got my business and will get all my business in the future. Not only did she respond to my post first, she took the time to answer the phone, which is not the case for the other 2 companies that posted after she did. In my limited experience with them I am very impressed, despite a little bump in the road to repair, Throttleup is a OUTSTANDING company !
Great job Julie!

Jason I would have to agree with you. I have talked to Julie about labbing a set for me. I must have spent about 30 min on the phone and I was very happy with the conversation. She Is very informative and took the time to go over everything with me. When I take the plunge I will be sending my business to her. :D
