We will be offering to recondition reflectors in the near future. Silvering is no longer the most reflective or especially durable way to do it. Nor is it cost effective for the customer. Also silvering tarnishes with time. As someone mentioned it does not normally respond well to cleaning either.
Mirror shops are not really capable of doing the preparation work required. Or if they are it is too time consuming. We expect to offer silvering as well but it is very much in decline and an enviromental nightmare now.

I felt reflectors are cheap to mail and was looking for something for my son in law to do. His back is not a surgical candidate so he will not be returning to his old employment. This is light enough work he can cope with it. We will see how it goes.
Anyways we have gathered up perhaps eighty percent of the required equipment so far over the last few months. It is getting closer to setting it up and running with it all the time.
I have always believed in fair value for the customer as well. I have never engaged in the practice of gouging people. This policy will not change in my remaining lifetime. I also know my son in law is ethically driven as well.
If nothing else I will be on top of quality control all the time.
