or buy some Ferees cold strip gel - brush on , leave for 20-30 mins , then rinse to de activate the chemical. Use Playtex or other thick gloves and eye protection , use an old brush to loosen the green residue . you may need to do some areas twice. much quicker and the stuff isnt really dangerous if you keep it out of your eyes and rinse any exposed skin with soap and water. Works on MOST lacquer, but nothing will strip a later model Yamaha unless you use acid.
The horn still is doing great, I chose not to put any clear laquor on it and it still looks great and I haven't noticed any problem swith it so far. That's my experience at least
Broke Musicians Guide ok, thank you for the response. It looks great! I'm thinking about doing this with a king 1241 but leave the inside of the bell with that old king lacquered look. How long did you soak it for?
If I do this, should I put some kind of protective coating on the brass or leave it bare? Does leaving the brass bare make it more prone to molding or getting tarnished, etc?
I have heard different debates on it, some want it as "pure" as possible so they keep it no laquer, I can tell you 4 years later it's looking fine without any protective coating. But if you are looking past that maybe a clear coat of laquer would be good.
My repairman told me that you can't unlaquer any modern horn by using vinegar, especially Yamaha saxophones. If I were you, I'd have it done by a professional.
un video estúpido, no explica el proceso , los materiales ni los quimicos que usa y tampoco e tiempo de cada proceso, no ayuda a nadie...para que lo hizo ...

Hello,
how concentrated (%) is the vinegar and is that also possible with normal vinegar essence?
Gosh it's been awhile but honestly I just grabbed the cheap Distilled Vinegar jugs.
Hi, after delacquering, did you use any lacquer to protect against oxidation?
I did not... I probably should of but some people say don't put anything on it, some say do
Da para ver o corte da lata feito no primeiro processo de fabricação perto da campana até a curva do sax.
Do you know how to put it back together
I did screw it back together myself.... and it didn't work... not even close. So I took it to a repair friend of mine and he got it worked out.
Any updates on this Horn? Any tips on the process, what to look for or techniques to use.

Broke Musicians Guide it's fine to use the same vinegar in the soaks? After the 8 days you polish the metal?
Forgive my ignorance, but what’s the tune on the background please?
Im not a scientist or anything but i dont wanna harm my saxophone
then dont harm simple
did the vinegar destroy the springs?
Nope, at least I've never had any issues
Wouldn’t a paint stripping heat gun do the job a lot quicker?
it's not paint
Use the same distiled vinegar every time right
yep same one

Caranauba wax every 3-4 months (more often where the instrument is handled). Then a light minimal polishing once per year.
great tip! I'm gonna try this on a Martin indiana Tenor I'm restoring : )
let me know how it goes
Can you do this in a trumpet?

Este video de ninguna manera dice que sea una explicación. Vas a un restaurante chino y les gritas "¿por qué no vendes hamburguesas?"
