Stainless Prop Repair

Damaged my prop at the weekend - not too serious but a few nicks out of the blades. I want to get it repaired and so far have found two likely candidates Castle Marine and Steel Developments.
Anyone had experience of these or can recommend alternatives?
Cheers
Martyn

Thanks all for your input - left a message with Propellor Solutions as they are suppliers of Powertech props but no response so Steel Developments it is then.
