Hello Sherwood,
My father dived back in the 80s with his own gear, since then, he's only dived on vacation. We still have all his old gear, largely Sherwood, consisting of an Aluminum 80, a BC, and a full reg setup. We are looking into having his gear overhauled, and plan to bring the regulator and BCs to a local shop for full repair. I have a question about his tank; it was made pre 1989 and last VIP'ed and hydro'ed in the early 90s. My question is whether the tank is still usable, or suffers the same fate as Luxfers of the same age. Also, I'm curious as to whether there's any kind of lifetime warranties to your regulators or BCs that may cover repair.
Thank you!
