Re: Rebuilding an outdoor-use clarinet

I used cork pads almost throughout on my plastic Yamaha clarinet (and plastic Signet Soloist oboe) with leather pads in the four largest pad cups, rubberised cork for the majority of key stopper corks, nylon tipped adjusting screws and ultrasuede for open-standing keys which keep key noise down to a minimum.

Pretty much what I do when overhauling any clarinet as these materials have proved themselves where longevity and durability is concerned.
