The service who reconditions our equipment is coming next week. I'm a first year HC and I have no idea how this process works. The guy have me a call a few weeks ago and gave me a general idea. I was hoping some of you guys could help me out. We had 60 kids modified thru Varsity this fall. Obviously all of the helmets will be reconditioned. Do you typically do shoulder pads every year as well, or is that an every other year type thing? I know they do pants and jerseys as well, but I didn't notice anything besides some normal wear and tear. Is it abnormal to only recondition helmets?
On a side note, does anyone have an idea as to how much it would cost to get a Matte Black finish on our helmets?

We use Riddell for everything. Would assume they are in your area. I purchase, through Riddell, the equipment disinfectant and spray the pads when the boys turn in their equipment and again before I distribute it in the summer. Cost for reconditioning & painting 60 helmets is prob gonna run you $3k+

We will have them do some repairs on some shoulder pads, and have had some reconditioners in the past who did cloth repair (torn pad pockets on pants for example) but we don't do that anymore (the girdles with all the pads in them took care of that issue and we have some one local who'll sew tears cheaply. We do all of our helmets every year, but not shoulder pads.

We use Riddell for our helmets. We have never recondition our shoulder pads. We feel that you can buy and replace them just as cheap if you can get a system going.

Tango, it cost us 20 through Riddell to recondition shoulder pads.. I would love to buy them for that cheap. But I understand.
