One major benefit of ultrasonic cleaning is the ability to clean small, intricate pieces quickly and effectively. A great example of this is with the cleaning of brass instruments.<\/p>\n
Saliva leaves behind corrosive acids and mineral deposits that build-up on valves and tone holes. Even slides, like on a trombone, can start to stick.<\/p>\n
Manually cleaning musical instruments is usually tedious and time consuming.<\/p>\n
Significant disassembly is often required, and even then it\u2019s hard to be sure you have cleaned every crack and crevice.\u00a0In addition, harsh chemicals and scratchy brushes are not what you want to use on delicate brass.<\/p>\n
The neutralization of acids and removal of saliva deposits is essential to prolonging the life of each instrument. An\u00a0ultrasonic instrument cleaner<\/a>\u00a0requires only minor instrument disassembly and the cleaning can be completed within three to five minutes, compared to a half hour or more by hand.<\/p>\n Ultrasonic cleaning solutions, like\u00a0Horn Clean 727<\/a>, are \u00a0typically light phosphoric cleaners or citric-based soaps, and won\u2019t damage the instrument\u2019s finish.<\/p>\n Another benefit of an ultrasonic instrument cleaner is that even the tiniest of spaces can be effectively reached and thoroughly cleaned.<\/p>\n For music stores and music repair shops, the advantages of an ultrasonic instrument cleaner include greater productivity and profitability. Since more brass and woodwind instruments can be cleaned in less time, more instruments can be serviced or repaired.<\/p>\n Yes, we may be \u201ctooting our own horn\u201d, but our ultrasonic consultants can show you how an ultrasonic instrument cleaner can benefit your business or organization.
