    Default Cleaning Drums

    Okay I got a gig coming up and I need an easy way to clean my drums from Dust, Rust and other bad-happenings that befall Drumsets with age.

    Any help would be appreciated, Thanx!!!

    Rust???

    Seriously, try using the finest steel wool you can get (0000)...

    Depending on your shells' finish--if it's a vinyl or plastic finish--you might spray Windex on the cloth only and wipe it off. If your shells are wood, use Pledge like RD suggested...

    Of course it's like own'n a car...keeping things clean and lubed as you go saves ya time and excess labor before a gig...

    keep the beat goin' ... Don't keep it to yourself!

    Rust is nasty... Have you been leaving it somewhere wet..... OR is that a natural thing for chrome (Maybe i can clean my old impact kit up for sale)
