I agree with Stu on this.
Rebuilding or reconditioning a radiator would include more than flushing it
out or pouring in a chemical, presumably to clean it out. Rebuilding would
involve, at the very least cleaning the outside, checking and/or resoldering
all of the seams and fittings. Further the rebuilding process would include
pressure testing. If T. W. Murray is doing all of this or sending the
radiators out to be done at a regular radiator shop then they would have no
trouble with saying that the radiators are rebuilt or reconditioned.

Just my 1/2 cent worth.
