Yeah, I can figure this out myself - from experience - which more times than not, is the hard way.
I have several hihat stands which I am restoring for future sale, and I use the Dawn soaking treatment......Can I soak the whole thing, or must I avoid soaking the internal parts of the pedal?
Also, same question for the labels. Must I tape them off, seal them somehow, or nothing at all. Soaking is going to risk them falling apart and coming off. Can I go ahead and soak them, then NOT TOUCH THEM at all and just let them dry...resulting in drying right on the stand as before as tight as before. I am just running through hypotheticals here.
Please advise here before I soak labels off and damage internal parts......
After-all, you may want to buy one from me :)
Thanks,
John
