Trumpet, Trombone & Euphonium ONLY: How to give your instrument a BATH
*Make sure you have a cleaning snake, slide grease, and valve oil* - Fill bathtub with warm (not hot) water and squirt of dish soap - Take apart entire instrument (but set valves aside as the felt must not get wet. Also take note of the numbers on the valves) - Soak instrument, slides and mouthpiece for 20 minutes - Use snake to clean inside each piece - Rinse, remove from water, and set all pieces on a towel to dry - Grease all slides and then reassemble (the valves have numbers and must go back in the right order) |
