Wow, the action footage getting those slides off had me on the edge of my seat. (Yes, I know I should get out more.)
Same
You're right! It is exciting watching Art work!
Thank you for returning this instrument to it's former beauty.
Awesome Video! Theres deffinetly nothing cooler than seeing the complete restoration of something that started off as nothing more than an old hunk of Metal, Keep it up!
This is so much fun to watch, thank you for sharing! Good reminder that the wick method only works on the little slides.
Thank you! The tip about pushing the slide in first was great! I have an old cornet I could only get two slides moving on, and the push-in method helped me get the other two started so I could get a little slide grease in there.
Yes! Can’t wait to see how this turns out!!!
Thank you, great video. So interesting to see you work on this instrument.
Awesome video can't wait to see the final result 👍
What kind of knucklehead used ugly, fake, matte gold paint over such beautiful silver plate and engravings? Loving this restoration.
Interesting, thanks.
great video
It would be interesting to know how many hours this whole process takes, and to have a running total going. Have you been keeping track by any chance?
I have not written it down, but I will think back and remember how long it took and then write it down so I can keep track. Thank you for the suggestion.
Great video! Have you ever tried Ferres J88 Corrosion Cracker Penetrating oil? I use that at work for all the stuck slides especially on Sousaphones.
I would hold off on the paint stripping until I knew I could fix that bell??
You should have left the valves in the casings when working on the stuck slides. The casing can easily become deformed when pulling the stuck slide too hard or in the wrong direction.
All you have to do is submerge the whole trumpet in boiled water for 30 minutes, nothing more. All stuck slides will come out.
What liquid did you use to clean the parts of the trumpet and how much time is left in the liquid.
I used mineral spirits (also known as paint thinner). That is not what I normally use to clean instruments though. It should only be used on silver plated instruments that have been painted. It can be left in the liquid for an hour or so.
Where is your shop located? I have a few instruments that need work and it would be nice to have have someone I know will do it right take a look.
I am in Burnt Hills, New York which is a little north of Albany.
