Rebuilding never includes renewing or replacing the phosphor, that I know of. The company I work for used to have CRTs rebuilt in Chicago for the airport information displays we support. When we were short of good duds to be rebuilt, we had our supplier rebuild some with "only minor" phopshor burns on their faces from the fixed arrival/departure information that had been displayed. (Most dud CRTs we used to replace have severe burns from the high-contrast, fixed information.)
