Rebristling Vac shops used to be able to do it. Now, I'll bet if you took a brush roll in for rebristling they'd just stare at you like you just stepped out of a flying saucer. Wonder if Hoover still does 'em. Not likely....... Tom A.?? | ||

hoover28, You might want to try VCCC member Don O'Connor in Youngstown, OH. He has rebristled a number of brush rolls for me in the past. He has a "rebristleing" machine. His phone number from the roster is 330-782-6602 and email is: doconnors@neo.rr.com I'm not sure if he is still doing it as he may be retired completely from the business. His prices were fair and his work excellent. If you contact him and works out, let us know. | ||

Yes, I have also heard of Don and his excellent work...Hoover stopped doing that service years ago. Let us know how it works out and post some pics! --Tom | ||

Wow! Looks pretty good to me - I think he may get a few jobs from this post;). Im sure theres a few Brit collectors who would give him some business as well if hes prepared to post over here..... Maybe an email is in order :) Seamus | ||
