V.E.S. Skateboard-Pro Refurbishing Services

 Different finishes available. From a satin sheen to a glossy shine or flat. Also different layers - 1 or more depending on the boards condition and what the customer is looking for. The benefits of this are that the colors come back and the boards graphics have depth to them again. It will also help stained boards from fading. This is not just a fast paint job on a skateboard, it's a controlled and timed process that will make your graphics last and not crack over time like most clear paints will do as they age. It's also not a hard varnish that will crack if your board is skated in the future. And when the board has gone through the V.E.S seal process it gets protected with a final barrier product to help against what happens next to the board going into the future. We have also built into the process the ability to go back in and work on your board in the future if it gets damaged or scratched.

This board was finished and donated to raise money for the Meredith, Nh skate park.

The V.E.S. razor tail fix can be customized in looks or function too many different boards. We also use materials to mimic the board natural stock feel if skated now or in the future. 

Many older boards have this problem and as time goes on, it gets worse. I have tried many products on the market to fix and seal this problem and found, like anything, it has to do with preparation of the wood and time. I use a high quality product and technique that I feel  works way better than others. And when done, the sides are sealed and concave and pop are put back into the board. In most cases, any warping is gone.

AND IT WILL LAST!!

These are the most common  problems that  older boards have whether used, hung for display, or put into storage a long time ago. These problems only get worse and you will end up losing your graphics, its history, and the board's value in the future if nothing is done. Some of the boards problems out there are also speeding up do to people pulling them apart to sell in pieces or just found in an-ESTATE FIND - were it has been for 40 years untouched. If you have boards like this in your collection the clock for damage has been sped up. I have developed a process to help address these many different problems, as I have worked on all kind of boards that have lived in different kinds of environmental conditions all over the world.

Both old and new stickers can be sealed into your board through the V.E.S. process. This can give your board a collectable value for the future as a one of a kind.  

Can't fix this board but could come darn close!

Don't let this happen to your board!!

Depending on the boards condition, most stickers can be pulled off the board with minimal graphic pull if any. 

Pulling old vintage stickers off a vintage skateboard is its own art form and not for the week at heart. But V.E.S. has gotten pretty good at it. We have learned a few good tricks over the years!

V.E.S. can save most vintage stickers and refurbish them to be used again or saved as part of the boards history.  

This vintage board has some well stepped on old dirty looking grip-tape thats in constant decline in look and value.

We can pull most grip-tape off old boards.

This grip-tape has now been refurbished and put back onto a refurbished vintage board to look great and hold its value going into the future. This is just one of many way's V.E.S. can save your skateboard history!!!

This board had more holes than needed.

Holes now filled and blended into the grip tape to make this board display much better.

Now we have the problem of holes on the bottom.

This is what a V.E.S. detail can do for you. Holes filled with custom V.E.S. color matching wax, stickers removed and color matched vintage plastics!!

This was a customer's board.

I use a high quality hard wax that will not melt if left in the sun or near heat. A lot of people will use putty, wood filler and other things but I like that the hard wax I use will not separate from the board and is more flexible over time which will keep out dirt, debris, and water that can hurt a board over time in storage. It also can be removed easily without hurting the board.

Am I the only one that can see the potential benefits of keeping these knock outs on the graphics? This board was filled from the back side with V.E.S. wax to keep these in place for long term storage. And if it went through the GOLD STANDARD V.E.S. PROCESS

Just think how it would display!!

These are vintage Gullwing Trucks with custom color fade- one of the many looks we can provide. Many color options available!

Saving the original paint makes these trucks one of a kind, with a deep, wet glossy look. History saved, locking in the original paint!

These Tracker Trucks have been powder coated. We can do this for you! Many color options available!

I see a lot of these wheels for sale, and cheap, 

now I know why.

V.E.S. is fixing what the big companies leave behind.

One of many custom looks we do.

If you want your collection to stand out and look good doing it:

We make that happen!

.

The way I see it, if it's going to stand out in normal light, it should also stand out under a black light. Stock wheels don't do this.

If you want your skateboard wheels to look good, and display well, don't wait for the big skateboard companies to fix their product.
