I have a Miele induction wok - amazing piece of kit and normally retails for silly money (like £3k) - I picked one up as an ex display for a relative bargain...
The wok has teflon / non stick surface and the surface has degraded and it is no longer non-stick.

A replacement wok is £600...

Does anyone know of a good service that can clear down a surface and recoat it with teflon?

I'm trying with Miele in parallel for a discounted replacement but would prefer to spend a reasonable fee in re-coating vs £400 in a replacement...

Interesting to see if it’s a service that’s worthwhile doing?

Have you considered a stainless steel wok that you just season well?

We got rid of any Teflon coated cooking pans. They always peel and are not needed. Between my stainless steel and cast iron stuff I can cook anything and it doesn’t stick. Can you get a cheaper one than the Miele one?
It's a very specific wok as it nestles in this rather (to my eyes) beautiful glass induction base.

Fluorotecoffers a Teflon recoating service for bakeware.

A Google search for 'teflon recoating UK' reveals quite a few possibles.
Thanks. I had searched before but drawn a blank. Much appreciated.

To summarise, while the product the OP is looking to refurbish is of some quality and value, I personally don't find the extra value in it above some more reasonable product suggestions.
The issue is I can't just find another wok. It is a specific radius and size to fit in the glass "bowl" of the induction hob as it relies on complete contact from all sides. I am seeking to refurbish and maximise it's lifespan...

If expect something like this to have a long warranty period and if it needs recoating Miele should replace it or recoat it
With a coating it is wear and tear... and it is 6 years old. I have no issue with Miele and as noted I am exploring replacement costs with them.
