Madali lang yung sa baking soda and sobrang ganda ng results. Kumuha ka ng basin, yung panglaba siguro, tapos make sure mo na kasya yung cymbal na paglaglagyan mo.

1.) Fill the basin with warm water (wag boiling! basta warm)
2.) Add the baking soda
3.) Submerge the cymbal (swimming swimming)
4.) After a while (siguro about 10-20mins), kunin mo na yung cymbal then rinse mo siya ng water.
5.) Punasan ang cymbal, done.

Here, these are my results from earlier. (sorry, just took shots with camphone kaya mejo mababa yung quality)

Zildjian ZBT Hi-hats (4 years old)

Here it is, the Sabian Xs20 Crash, tignan niyo yung effects ng GLO.

Paiste Innovations Crashride, ito grabe, parang brand new! (4 years old)

ayos 'tong method na to. tatry ko mamaya.

alam ko nag post na ako dito before... so this will be an update to my post..

WD40 - it works pero kinabukasan, may mga RAINBOW na yung cymbals mo.. and if unattended, maging mancha yung rainbow na yun. (so sablay to in the long run, pero sa madalian or mabilisang linis, pwede na to).

GLO - nakaka linis din to at parang DW40 din ang effect where sandali lang eh nagkaka stain agad. This is what I really don't recommend. masisira cymbals mo dito sa prolonged use.

Lemon or other citrus fruits - Eto minimal lang ang effect then malagkit pero FRESH SMELLING na cymbals mo! hahaha..

Baking sode - I haven't tried this..

Oxalic - Eto kung gusto mong mag AGE yung cymbals mo.. eto gamitin mo! hehe.. Pero the best ito sa mga hardwares like lugs, rims, stand, etc.

Lazer cheap-o cleaner - This is totally waste of 250 pesos.

Zildjian Cleaner - The best to, matrabaho, mahal pero ang end result naman eh malufet!! makintab at parang may coat sya ng protection (like wax) na hindi agad nag rurust/stain yung cymbal.

Sabian - I Haven't tried this.. kasi wala naman akong Sabian.

Jack's Sikrit_wipon_swiss_army_knife_ala_McGyver_cleaning method - ETO ANG THE BEST!!!

Pero the best CARE you can give your cymbal is...
Play it properly
- Hwag hatawin ng sobrang lakas (ex. yung splash na 12 eh hinahataw na parang CRASH)
- Mount it looooooosely sa stand, hwag i-choke. otherwise mag crack yan.
- Don't hit it DIRECTLY in the middle or at the edge. (glancing motion is the best).
- Avoid metal to metal contact (during transpo or during mounting atthe stand).
- buy a decent paded bag for your pies...

hope this helps..

This has been my problem for 24 years in my drumming careeer until i accidentally found a solution. Tide Ultra and MC metal polish lang bro. Wag ka gagamit ng GLO masisira cymbals mo kasi highly corrosive ang GLO.
Procedure:
Magpabula ka ng Tide Ultra sa basin tapos ibabad mo cymbals mo ng mga 30 minutes then punasan mo parang hinihilod. Tapos banlawan mo at punasan hanggang sa matuyo. Tapos lagyan mo ng MC metal polish Php 54 pesos lang yun sa Ace Hardware yung cymbals ko tagal ko na ginanyan hindi pa rin nasira yung natural finish nya. ganda ng effect sa cymbal ko. Tried and tested formula ko yan bahala na kayo mag decide kung gagawin nyo o hindi pero para sa akin it worked kesa bumili ka ng cymbal cleaner na mamahalin. Practikalan lang yung sa akin bro. SALAMAT

kasmoteer · « **Reply #391 on:** December 16, 2009, 03:39:19 PM »

my suggestion ako, y not use a driller (barena) in cleaning a cymbals , for sure it will shine as hell
parang ganito

up ko itong thread na ito.. ganda ng mga tips!!!1

peeves24 · « **Reply #393 on:** December 17, 2009, 01:10:45 PM »

the best cleaner i know so far is the solution used to clean jewelry. sobrang mahal nga lang kahit sa divisoria bumili. clear liquid sya na nasa maliit na bote...250 pataas ang presyo nun. mas mahal kung sa gumagawa ng alahas bibilin.

sobrang kintab ng cymbal mo nun kahit konting pahid pero ingat sa logo kasi mabilis din matatanggal yun.

wag nyo na nga lang ako tanungin kung ano yung exact na tawag dun at kung saan sa divisoria binili kasi di na maalala. binigay lang ni ermat yung tira nya sa kin.

bro tanong mo gumagawa/nagrerepair ng alahas kung ano yung metal polish na ginagamit nya. metal polish din kasi yun.

g0d5_g1ft · « **Reply #397 on:** December 20, 2009, 01:33:44 PM »

gamit ko dati ung pang linis ng silver... para cyang paste na white... hindi naman glo... sobrang kintab ng staggs ko dati dahil dun, kahit idaan ko sa logo hindi natatanggal ung logo...

curious din ako dun sa driller

cheezemonster08 · « **Reply #398 on:** December 20, 2009, 02:03:31 PM »

hindi driller,alam ko pang butas yun ehh.
baka grinder,tapos gamit nya buffer wheel
yung gingamit sa machine shop pam-pakintab ng stainless steel.
