How to clean silver music instruments? Looking for a speedier, but efficient cleaner.?
I am currently a member in a Drum and Bugle Corps (DCI), and I was wondering if anybody knew of products that the brass line could buy to clean/polish our silver horns. We currently use Wrights Silver Polish, but it's very time consuming and, honestly, a lot of us really aren't greatest fans of it. Well most of the low brass at least I should say. But we are sometimes crunched for time and using Wrights doesn't help.
So I am asking for some help. We're looking into polishing wipes, but would those be enough to fully clean the horn or would a prior cleaning process be needed? A lot of us take the horns in the shower quick too, would the wipes work if all the kids did this??
If anyone knows a way to cleaning silver marching horns thoroughly so they are still presentable for performances, and to be quickly, that would be really great.
I've got a silver trumpet that was incredibly tarnished when I bought it. I used the Wright's polish for the initial cleaning, but have had great luck with the silver cloths since then. They tend to work great when used often, since there's not a buildup of tarnish that requires intensive cleaning. I think the cloths lose their "magic" if they get wet, but they're really convenient for regular and routine polishing.
