 Re: Plastic clarinet in hot car

I've had the task of sorting out oboes and clarinets that have been left in cars (both hot and cold). It's not a pretty sight and usually a fairly costly repair - sometimes a complete rebuild if all the pads have warped (which can happen with cork pads). The shellac or hot glue used to install the pads can ooze out and make a mess. Key corks and tenon corks can come unstuck and generally things will end up in a right unplayable mess.

The opinions I express are my own.
