Thank you for visiting the ReelClean website!
I have serviced fishing reels (and built a few rods) since the late 1980’s when I actually had time to go fishing! I have always been a Daiwa/ABU stalwart, but in 2010 Daiwa started to introduce “Magseal” to their range of flagship reels. I resisted the urge to buy any of the Certates after 2007 because of Daiwa’s refusal to sell the magoil to anyone, but grabbed a 2010 ‘tate (the best series of reels from any manufacturer IMHO) to work on the magseal problem.
After much research I deduced that Daiwa were using Ferrotec oils (and Daiwa subsequently purchased a shareholding in Ferrotec) so after analysis and deduction of the variant of oil that they were using I decided to start a business and specialize in the repair and replenishment of Magseals on Daiwa reels. Besides servicing my own reels, I discovered that local fisho’s and tackle stores were growing tired of sending reels south for service (from Darwin it was 2 weeks just for return postal service, let alone service department delays) and appreciated a repair turnaround of about a week (sometimes days) rather than 4-8 weeks!
Thus ReelClean came to be, and I have been servicing, repairing and upgrading reels since then in Darwin, Toowoomba and now in the FNQ region. I have customers from Mornington and Horn Is, Gove, Weipa, Innisfail and the Tablelands that mail their reels to me for repair and service, so distance is no barrier!
