He went on a politically incorrect rant......said all the stuff that would normally get you cancelled nowadays. It's the only way to speak your mind now, and keep your channel.
I’ve always had more appreciation for a vintage drum in it’s original condition. They did do a great professional paint job on it no doubt! But when I found out the original finish was underneath, I had to get it back to the original. So glad I did too!
Taking it off with a razor blade!!! Hats off to your patience!! No heat gun huh? ( Not criticizing or recommending it- I've never stripped paint with a heat gun. It DID make the adhesive removal a lot easier.)
Leo R. LaBarge thanks Buddy! Yeah, I’ve used heat guns to only remove drum wrap. But what I was aiming to do was to get the original wrap underneath revealed. It was a great paint job but I don’t understand why anyone would want to paint over this gorgeous wrap.
Thanks for watching buddy!! I LOVE drums in general but Vintage drums are a major passion for me and it’s luckily a major part of my life. I’m very lucky to say the least.
I loved the attention to detail and the love and care you gave that kit to bring it back to life. Side question though, i followed your endorsement steps but now what am i supposed to do with all of these chinchilla's? they are just running around the studio making a mess. would you suggest a new Chinchilla fur hat, or do i wait until they multiply again to make a coat? Thanks.
That was a very careful and detailed way to remodel a vintage kit! A lot of people might not have even attempted this! Good to see that you can restore the original wrap. Looks amazing!
I LOVE vintage drums. It’s a major part of my life and always will be. The kit was owned by one owner. It was a kit that in the eighties he wanted to change the color but didn’t want to go through the trouble of rewrapping it. So he had it painted professionally. It looked like a great job on the painting job. My only regret is that I felt the video was a little too long. Thank you so much for the kind words! I do hope this info helps you!
I only used that for the inside of the drums. The painted finish on this kit had a primer, color coat and a lacquer on top so the graffiti remover wouldn’t have done a lot. Plus sometimes the chemical does some weird stuff
Hey there! Sorry for the long delay in response! I’m working on a new video and been on tour so it’s been taking a while for me to get back on here but yes! I did work at Bailey Brothers Music!
Love San Antonio. Planning to visit down that way more often. My friends “the Ryders” have a drum shop over there. Gotta visit them whenever I get there.
