Yeah, looks great! What is the process of laquering or applyiing silver plating to the instrument? How do you plate some parts with different materials without "leaks"?

Scoob,

Please don't hold me (us) in suspense. Where did you acquire that horn? It looks great now, but the before photos are horrifying. That tuba looked like it came from the bottom of a swamp. :cry: You did a terrific job cleaning it up.

Oh man! What collector is going to want that now!? All the patina is gone! :shock:
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Please bring me up to speed as to what happened to the tuba that it ended up in the "before" state - it looks like it went through a fire or something similar.
