Re: ultrasonic cleaning

Small ultrasonic cleaners are available for around $30 (with shipping costs of $20) on That Unmentionable Auction Site, but the interior is too small for the longer clarinet keys. Larger ones are around $50.

Oboists and bassoonists rave about them for cleaning reeds. I don't know of any clarinetists who use them, though.

For reeds, oboists use distilled water as the liquid. For key cleaning, I'd ask Omar and the other repair technicians.
