Right - so TF Tuned got back to me right away - £105 is the works and includes damper strip down/rebuild - so its not as pricey as I'd feared.
That said, I'm still going to give it a go. Found another thread which suggests the method is as I thought.
There is some discussion at the bottom about whether you need to invert it some how / create a vacuum, but I'll give it a go an see if I can manage to not destroy anything.Nothing ventured - nothing gained!

Last thing - does anyone have a supply of cheap crush washers? (I need 8 and 13mm) They are like £4 a set on ebay which seems crazy for two bits of basic plastic. I've reused them in the past - but it's probably time for some fresh ones. I'd hope to buy a bag of them for a couple of quid so I can use fresh each time. I'll be doing the lowers on the misses bike later and need 8mm for them too.
