| Re: Tarnished brass question?
Hey,
I agree...
I'd try polishing it up w/ Flitz. This stuff works really well and is non-abrasive. Once it's polished, some car wax like Turtle wax would be a clear coat.
Like Vulgano said, the red spots could be red rot. You might want to have a tech check that out.
Good Luck
P.s... Is this horn an Elkhart Bach, or a Mt. Vernon Bach? Just curious, that serial # seems low. I don't really know anything about Bach serial numbers.
Thnks
