The TRUTH about restoring drums.

Loading...

That is the correct stuff. Hopefully water based so as not to be aggresive to your or anything else. Apply to both the drum and wrap, as directed on the can's instructions. You get one shot a attaching it, so have a friend there to hold the drum and then carefully place the first edge onto the drum and slowly smooth it down working from the starting point slowly down to the terminal point.

Good luck with the task. If it starts to go south on you, have some common phrases ready to release to exhaust the frustrations. Yes Sir

I TOTALLY agree with everyone here on the 60's MIJ kits. I've got a 60's Apollo kit in Glass Glitter (remember when DW "introduced" that color and everyone went crazy for it?) that sounds unbelievable. As much as I love the way vintage Ludwig kits sound, I would put my Apollo kit up against one of them ANY DAY. I know it's kind of an apples to oranges comparison, but this kit is hands down the best sounding vintage kit I think I've ever heard. They are SO warm and round.

And to think...C & C is making kits (and selling a lot them) out of Luan wood these days. Good for them, but I wouldn't trade my $200 Apollo's for any of them.

Oh yeah...the COS snare drum that I got with the kit is my main drum. When I hear the perfect

snare drum sound in my head, it's THAT drum.
