Members HuskerDude Posted February 8, 2005 Members Share Posted February 8, 2005 I like the look of my cymbals w/o any logos, doesn anyone know of a polish that will quickly get rid of them while not damaging my cymbals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRuM Posted February 8, 2005 Members Share Posted February 8, 2005 Just a thought, maybe groovejuice, the cymbal cleaner. I think that tends to rub logos off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ulank Posted February 8, 2005 Members Share Posted February 8, 2005 Bench grinder.... or Groove Juice. Yah, whenever I clean my cymbals, it's noticeable that the logo gets worn off a bit. Rinse and repeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members HuskerDude Posted February 8, 2005 Author Members Share Posted February 8, 2005 Thanks guys. Groove Juice it is, then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Old Steve Posted February 8, 2005 Members Share Posted February 8, 2005 Hold on a minute....I've heard nightmare stories about that stuff! Be careful, as much as it's easy to use, it's also pretty harsh, and supposedly will take any protective coatings that new cymbals have on them. Anyway, do a search on Groove Juice. I swear I heard some scary stuff about it here before. Sorry for the lack of details. As for removing logos, two words: tin snips. Works every time.

Members mkcee Posted February 9, 2005 Members Share Posted February 9, 2005 Paint thinner should take it off without attacking the metal too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rumblebelly Posted February 9, 2005 Members Share Posted February 9, 2005 I always use sulfuric acid to clean my cymbals....they are very thin now and have lot's of holes. So what is this protective finish on the cymbals made out of? Is it wax or something similar? I found that Sabian logos come off a lot quicker than Zildjian logos. I don't like the logos on my cymbals either, even though the cymbals themselves are of decent quality (some people might wanna remove logos so no one knows what they are).

It always worth investigating, but it takes very little "elbow grease" and groove juice to take it off. I try hard to clean my cymbals without losing the logo, but if Im rubbing prints out, the logo comes off with it. I have Zildjian A customs, so Im not sure if the Sabian logos come off easier or not. I have had these cymbals about 3 years and have not noticed damage or discoloration. I was surprised to hear that people's cymbals are turning orange. I've been very pleased with Groove Juice. Thanks for the heads-up Old Steve...Im going to look into this more before using it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
