Atomic sealed and unsealed

[Hatul]

So my Atomic T2 came from the factory sealed.

I plan to never dive in cold water again. Been there, done that, no further interest.

Since that's the case, next time I have it serviced, in the interest of saving a few bucks would there be any issue with asking the tech guy to just clean out the old ChristoLube and skip the resealing altogether?

I asked this of the Atomic people at the dive show and they said it does not need to be sealed (the T2 and ST1 both which come sealed).

Nevertheless I plan to leave my ST1 sealed as it makes it easier to rinse, the seal keeps the silt out and the service is only biannual anyway.
