ULTRA SONIC CLEANING For years the repair industry's standard for cleaning brass and metal parts has been the use of various acids: hydrochloric, mauriac, and even cyanide. There are multiple health risks to the workers, customers, and environment when using these chemicals. Yet they are one of the best and cheapest way to clean brass instruments and are widely used in the industry today, hence the term "Acid Bath”.
As an alternative to the "Acid Bath", we offer Ultra Sonic Cleaning. Instead of using harsh chemicals, this process is able to accoplish the same job using soap and water.
Magnetic Dent Removal
Strong magnets and stainless steel balls are used to remove dents that would otherwise require taking apart the instrument. This process delivers better results with less labor charges and instrument damage
