Scott, how long can they sit after the rebuild before they are installed, just trying to know what kind of lead time I need so they dont go bad before installation/use.
They can sit for several years, no problem. I warrant any restoration work I do for as long as you own them, if a problem does occur on startup after storage you can rest assured, I will take car of it. To date I have had zero problems assosiated with customers using them after long term storage.
*Those aren't blasted Domingo, as bad as they appeared "before" they cleaned up rather easily in this case. Blasting is a LAST resort when a really nasty set is being restored, typically it's not required.
Regardless of the level of surface deterioration (or lack of such) the dichromate does leave a somewhat motled surface look, some dull and some reflective areas, photos exagerate the effect depending on the lighting.
As with anything being restored, the better the initial condition, the better the final results will be.
