When you have a cue refinished, do you have to have the wrap re-done aswell? If you had a nice leather wrap on a cue and wanted to have the cue re-finished, do you have to get a whole new leather wrap? Also, what is the going rate to re-finish a butt and 2 shafts?

The finishes that I use and the amount that I put on dictate that the wrap be changed. I can do it without changing the wrap but usually the job is not as good and I charge extra for the extra worked involved.

Dick is right. It can be done but a refinish without a wrap change will not be as good.

Might as well get it re-finished when I have the wrap done then.

The thing is, I purchased a used cue and want to change the wrap on it to leather. The cue has a few dings in it and I was thinking I would just get the wrap for now and wait to have the re-finish done later, but it might be in my best interest to have it all done at one time.

What is the going rate to refinish a cue?

Are the dings actually chips in the finish or just scratches and dents. I ask because they might be repairable without a total refinish. Some blemishes can be fixed with a little wet sanding and buffing. Others will require new finish. Got any pics of the cue?
