Can anyone recommend a good place to get it refurbed in the south east, near London if possible :happy2:

Cheers

When spit and polish cannot get them right they send them to Lepsons.   
What I would like to know is who to go to when Lepsons screw them up?
Not happy with my wheel they refurbished (crap in paint/lacquer and a 'shadow' on one spoke)

I have been to 'Spit and Polish' in Kent a couple of times and have been very impressed.

Don't use Spit and Polish, terrible company with no standards.  I have sent loads of wheels back to them in the past.......then I discovered Lepsons - 1st class all the way
