Kung akin yung drum na yan, I would keep it that way. Mukhang makintab at maayos pa naman yung metal. Sayang yung chrome plating. Ika nga nila... If it ain't broken, don't fix it.

But it's your drum, bro! You can do whatever you want to do with it. White shell and black metal parts are always a nice combination... Reminds me of Vinnie's Signature Gretsch kit and Lars' old Tama kit.

Good luck!

hmmm...
maganda nga po siya sana kc makintab,

sa totoo lng, di ko inasahan na gaganda siya ng ganyan, nilinis ko kc yan kahapon,
eh,
mahirap kc magmaintain ng chrome eh,
laging nadidikitan ng finger prints at iba pang marks...

Well said sir DIO. Double check mo lang tol kung pede patungan ang chrome finish. Baka magbakbak lang yung paint pag pinatungan. Happy drumming

Anyway, that's just me. I love chrome. I love how it shines and how classy it looks, and it will never go out of style. And I don't mind the constant wiping. As long as I do my part and maintain it properly, it will stay beautiful for years.

Oo nga pala... before refinishing any metal (powdercoating, re-plating, etc), diba kailangan munang bakbakin yung old finish or plating? Dapat yung pinaka-metal mismo ang patungan? Paging paolo/peeves...

sir peeves...
pano po/
paki sagot naman po,

waaah!!!
naguguluhan na ko,

mukhang hindi nalang ako magpapacoat,

peeves24 · « **Reply #29 on:** October 17, 2006, 08:59:20 PM »

yup dapat talaga bakbakin kaya lang walang nagbabakbak dito. sandblasting ang method na ginagamit nila para ma strip yung plating pero wala ako alam na shop na may ganung facility e.

so far so good, yung chrome steel snare ko naman in good condition pa rin, no sign of chipping or bubbles since i had it coated last year

UPDATE nov 3, 2008

merong sandblasting shop sa may east service road after sucat (kung galing ng makati). anne louis metal plating yung pangalan nung shop. bali between sucat and alabang sya.

So be it tol! May assurance naman pala si sir peeves.

punta ka na rin tapos iwan mo na lang yung parts. tatawagan ka naman nila pag tapos na.

i have memory lapses every now and then so im excused for being senile and not mentioning this before. i do believe i wrote about the 1 color per day scheme on some thread before.

i also remembered just now that my snare shell was brought somewhere in antipolo. i believe their driver was going and they were doing blue that day at the same time they were doing white in mandaluyong. i got the snare shell and all my hardware the same day. i did have to come back before closing coz the driver wont be back by then.

now that i mentioned it, i didnt ask them where in antipolo it was

ok,
thanks a lot for all the help sir peeves,

punta ko dun tomorrow morning,

salamat

hello, just wondering, can you add simple pinstripe designs when you get it coated? Im looking for a place where they can do simple customizing...

peeves24 · « **Reply #35 on:** October 17, 2006, 10:07:22 PM »

i dont know about the tape used in pinstriping. it might not withstand the oven temperatures

ordinary masking tape can survive the oven, i used them to cover moving parts and threaded sections

manson · « **Reply #36 on:** October 17, 2006, 11:11:55 PM »

oh ok. ill give them a visit and ask them if they can do it.. i was checking out the DW website.. I loved the custom sets they have there. They had really cool designs!!!

Diadem · « **Reply #37 on:** October 17, 2006, 11:28:30 PM »

ser i think let the chrome stay there.. depreciate lng ung value ng snare mo... buti sana kung sa DW mo sin i papamod yan

manson · « **Reply #38 on:** October 17, 2006, 11:34:03 PM »

oo nga eh.. its a hassel pa if i bring my drum set there... sayang.. next time nalang.

zound_tech · « **Reply #39 on:** October 18, 2006, 06:57:36 AM »

eh kc, sa malapitan,
hindi talaga siya ganun ka ganda,

cguro,
i won't have it customized today,

but i'm really lookin forward to have it coated,

hirap mag decide,

dami na rin kasing mga blemishes ung chrome nya,
that's why gusto ko ipacoat,

pero cguro, not now,

thanks guys

mga sir, meron ako matte finish n drums, ask ko lgn po kung pwede ko pa-varnish ung set para lacquer finish n sya. dun ko ipagawa sa mga gumagawa ng mga furnitures, ung de-compressor. di po b magbabago tunog nun? and ok lng ba? suggestions nmn po. tnx!

toink · « **Reply #41 on:** October 31, 2006, 03:28:02 PM »

mga sir tulong nmn po, i have 2 sets of pdp fs series, pag pina-varnish ko sya, magiging fxr series n sya hehe. sana pwede

bangbus · « **Reply #42 on:** October 31, 2006, 04:33:52 PM »

in my humble personal opinion, i wouldnt do that if i were you eventhough the thought of it seems so brilliant and spectacular, i would much rather keep it in its OEM state. so that when i resell it, its still in its orig factory spec. i actually rewrapped my entire kit using vinyl wraps over the green (yuck imho, bought it 2nd hand eh no choice) OEM wrap but i could always take it off with ease or would leave the succeeding owners the option of removin it to reveal its orig wrap or keep the new wrap na lang for the mean time.

but its your call man, if you're goin to take the dive, make sure pantay and clean yung polish/varnish. no dust particles, no wavy uneven varnishing etc....teka my concern is baka the varnish might seep into the wood kasi nga exposed wood nga pala sya and walang wrap..hmmm this might have some effect sa sound. off the top of my head it could dampen the sound, im not sure though but imagine what a wet wood could do.

ask around pa, take your time, then decide.

dude may i ask, where'd you get your drumwrap?

hey franco, i picked em up when i went to this custom drum show in holland early this year and they had a lot of finish wraps, thin or thick, vinyl or plastic or metal-like, wood-like on there..it was drum spares heaven. i just got what i can afford.

you can check out this links for suppliers of drum wraps:

i hope this helps.

mas maganda ipagawa sa auto paint shop bro, urethane pabuga mo para matigas at mabilis matuyo. tipid pa kasi less coats. magbabago tunog nun for the worse kasi kung di maingat yung gagawa, baka magkadent sa bearing edge o kaya naman magkaron ng build up ng pintura sa edge at di na maging even. its advisable to recut the edges after refinishing.

IMHO, mas durable ang wraps kesa lacquer/urethane finish kaya hindi ko na gagalawin yun
