Nice one! Researching further I have seen that adding salt helps with the reaction, I guess it acts as electrolyte. Worth trying.

[@duncanfraserjazz]

Nice! Thanks Fernando

[@HabAnagarek]

This worked! Thank you

[@korncob6729]

Do you just rinse it off with water after?

[@duncanfraserjazz]

Yeah, quick rinse under the tap and it’ll be shiny as new. Have you had a go at this yet? Let me know how you got on!

@@duncanfraserjazz I did try it and it worked very well! Thank you!

@@korncob6729 it’s great isn’t it! What mouthpiece were you cleaning up?

[@korncob6729]

@@duncanfraserjazz I don't know what the brand of the mouthpiece is but it's a mouthpiece for my trombone

Does salt work?

[@duncanfraserjazz]

Steven Tran I can’t say I’ve tried it. If you have a go then let me know how you get on 👍

What warburton cup are you using?

[@duncanfraserjazz]

The two in this video are 3M & 3 SV - I haven't played them for close to 7 or 8 years though. I went onto them to gradually reduce the rim size I was playing on (without having to keep buying a new mouthpiece), but then switched to GR. I even went down to a GR64 at one point when I was working in the West End. I've now gone completely the other way and play a big Monette B2S3 which I've been on for nearly 2 years and have no thoughts of switching from, I love it!

Just use brass polish or silver polish. Even Barkeepers Friend will make it look brand new.

[@duncanfraserjazz]

56dlp nice. This way is kinda cool and sciencey though! I felt like Bill Nye 😂

[@56dlp]

@@duncanfraserjazz Toothpaste works great also I've heard. One thing about silver polish or brasso is that a small amount of the silver plating does come off. Not much, but some. Just gotta keep that in mind when using polishers. I had an horribly tarnished Olds 7C mouthpiece that had been sitting in a case probably since the horn was new in 1970. Barkeepers Friend made it look brand new again. I was amazed. Cleaned all the polish off with soap and warm water before using it. It's like a super 7C now!

​@@56dlp I know it's an old comment, but others may still find this video, so I'd like to add, that you should never ever use toothpaste on anything except your teeth.
