Sovereign Cornet Restoration
Переглядів 8913 роки тому
This Round Stamped Sovereign Cornet suffered horrific damage after the devastated owner reversed over the instrument. Holding a great deal of sentimental value, she insisted it had to be restored as opposed to being replaced with new. Another highly delighted customer.

Hi, im from México, I'm looking for Lacquer for brass, do you have some that you can sell me?
Beautiful!
Hello! I have one of these that i plan to restore. How did you get the new finish like that?
Pov ur jelous of getting a gold instrument so u polish it silver
what was the price?
In the US these trumpets run about $3,000, so expecting to pay somewhere around $1500 would be reasonable. If much more than that, it might just be time for a new horn, with brand new valves. These are not rare by any stretch. The last ones I did like this ran in that ball park. Not sure what these guys charge. ua-cam.com/video/-ZbDv80X8Z0/v-deo.html
Such a beautiful restoration that you did! I really enjoyed seeing how the horn went from a nice bright silver plate to a matte finish with polished accents.
What are the process steps here? Pickling, Rinse, Chemical Silver Deposition, Silver Electroplate?
I don’t know why but this video I so relaxing 🤷🏾♂️
Nice job! Must have cost a fortune though...

These are not rare by any stretch. I've done these for that ballpark. Who knows what others charge. ua-cam.com/video/-ZbDv80X8Z0/v-deo.html
how much does a procedure like this cost
How did it go from yellow to silver after 02:00?
I have the same feeling for the whole video...I do not only want to see WHAT you did, but HOW you did it!
He silver plate-it. I restorate instruments as well, and is a part of the restoration. Here is one example: ua-cam.com/video/ZDdXd0AMKf8/v-deo.html
