Gold Hardware

[yetsky]

ask ko lang mga bros kung ano ba magandang panglinis sa Goldhardware ng guitar? lumabo na kasi yung kulay eh sa bridge at tuners, mababalik pa kaya sa orig na kulay yun?... salamat!

coating lang siguro yan bro.

else that's one very expensive guitar you have.

polishers are actually abrasives...very kind abrasives. so if you use polishers on a piece of gold coated metal, the gold coating will disappear after some time. but if the metal is of solid gold, then it will simply shine.

the only way to get that shiny gold back is to have it plated again. ipapatubog ulit yan.

pag makapal naman ang coating, dapat basahan eh okay na. on the other hand, a very mild abrasive should make it shine but the more you "shine" it, the thinner the layer will get.

tnx. Protone Squire Strat '97 yun. malabo na kasi kulay ng pagka-gold nya e specifically sa bridge at tuners. So wala na talgang pag-asa yun goldplated na hardware paglumabo na? kelangan ipa-plated na lang? may alam ka ba bro na gumagawa nun?

i never liked gold hardware and probably never will, kasi nga kumukupas (na parang pekeng alahas)...well, that's just me
