Re: Cymbal maintenance
^ What ImperialStar15 said.
I used some Cymbal Swipes in the past but they were brutal on the cymbals finishes. So much so that I had to apply a thin layer of wax on 2 old cymbals I had.
I've learned not to apply harsh chemicals or abrasives to cymbals, only warm, soapy water will be used on my cymbals.
Each to their own however. Some love super shiny and that is totally cool too. It's how you like your cymbals that really matters.
