Polishing Silver Trumpets

Video Transcript

"Now I'm going to show you how to polish your silver trumpet. First of all I'm going to take our Windex, or window cleaner, and spray it on our paper towel, wipe all the fingerprints off of our trumpet. This helps quite a bit getting that off so the silver cleaner can remove any tarnish that is built up on the finish. We have a little bit of silver polish here we can use. Now I really only recommend using this on the bell part, anywhere where there's not much little cracks to get into. It's really hard to get out if you do get it in between the actual valve casings here and such. So you want to take a little bit of silver polish, put it on our cloth here. Like I said, an old teeshirt will work just fine, and just kind of work that on the trumpet to remove that tarnish. If you keep doing that, your trumpet will look beautiful every day that you play it. And that's how to silver polish your trumpet."
