As far as I understood your letter, you are asking about that ugly spots occurring on the bell & other places of the horn, these green or dark areas.
Well, there is just ONE way to prevent them: Keep the horn clean. How ? go to a super market & buy some of these cheap micro fibre towels (small size). Clean the horn off all the finger prints left on it. When to clean ? Every break, after closing the playing session, after the rehearsal or concert, or at the end of the first part, or after every piece. It takes just seconds. Develop a certain habit to do this kind of cleaning. These micro fibre towels cost just 1.- to 2.- USD a pair. ======================================================================== ================================================ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, December 21, 2003 2:58 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Hornlist] How to prevent pits. Hello all, I was wondering ways to prevent pitting on your horn. How does it occure, and is it only on unlaquered areas? How to prevent it from starting? Can it occur anywhere other than the bell?
