 Tarnished keys
Author: Sally

I have a 1953 (probably - dates are a bit tricky at this time!) Buffet R13, which is in quite incredible condition and I play it professionally.

Apart from one thing - some of my keywork (I think it is plated) is very tarnished. Is there anything I can do to brighten it up without taking my instrument to pieces or getting it done professionally?

Playing 8 shows a week in musicals means that I don't really have the time to risk taking it apart, but I would love it all to look as great as the places where my fingers touch it!

Thanks,

Sally
