Awesome Spencer.

Yes that's the way you do it. On a side note on the 1960's drums like Ludwig,Rogers,Slingerland, wrap in Pearl finish you can burn off the plastic wrap put the drum on the ground lite the finish on fire roll the drum on the ground with a metal pull the finish will be gone in 30 seconds. I have been restoring vintage drums for over the pass 40+ years. I was also part owner of Orange county drums and percussion in California in the 1990's

You’re welcome. We have another Rogers resto project for the summer.

You're welcome. Tony

Hey mate, yeah! Tony makes drums too, more from a prototyping and physics perspective than retail, but will do some steam, stave, ply and a couple of new methods in the future for the channel. There's a few dozen of his kit getting around, we will do a film and sound reveal on a few this year. Thanks for your comments and thoughts.

Not in the slightest. Most lacquers are thinners based. But it will dislike any paint or plastic it touches.

Thanks mate. Check out our other films.

Hi Miguel, it general purpose paint thinners. However be aware that there are several grades of thinners, some cut down with less effective ingredients. So a quality general purpose paint thinners should be standard the world over, I hope. All the best with your project, and remember to never have a flame or heat source anywhere near paint thinners. Kind regards Tony Moore

@@KillerDrumsTV Thanks

Hey Erwan! Thanks for the comment! Its general purpose paint thinners, should be able to pick some up from most hardware stores

@@KillerDrumsTV Thx from France👍🏻

You're welcome.

Brace yourself, a whole kit project is now underway.

Hey thanks for that, we always enjoy other people's expertise and input!

Yes! Correct. Formica laminate, which is far more sonic than plastic wrap or nitro wrap, which is dead. Formica is highly compressed paper impregnated with phenolic resin.

Not in my shop. When you cut edges all the time, you could do it blindfolded. It's only the inexperience that have trouble with edges.

Hey James, wraps often do deaden down drums, but they are usually the result of poorly applied wraps or outer veneers. But if you know what you're doing as a drum maker, a wrap can be applied to be no different to a ply. In fact i've demonstrate this in a video or two, but will do it again in an upcoming shoot, and I'll add a sound test to prove it. So subscribe and click the alarm to no miss it. Cheers
