    How do you clean and shine bare saxophone keys and pad cups?

    great videos, I recently was given by my dad an old early 1900's Martin Sax, maybe be cheapy or not as I know nothing about instruments. just my dad had had it since I was little and now 55. I basically just going to display it in my pool table room as a remembrance of my dad when he is gone. thankfully still here. he was no musician either but just used to play it when I was a kid as a hobby. many tell me leave it alone in condition it is in but would like it to be at least playable. don't think it really has any value other then sentimental to me. I think I surely have the skills to somewhat recondition it as far as playable, not sure I need finish to shine but general cleaning. I did watch that video. my concern is being able to reassemble correctly. (lots of parts) I saw your board to keep track of screws but is here some type of manual or map to reassemble correctly if I get to a spot where I get stumped? I realize I could just send it out but it is important to me to take on the project as my dad and have always figured it out and done projects ourselves. the sense of accomplishment is what I want. thanks for any feedback from you or others who care to input.

      It is usually not necessary to take it apart just to clean it. Usually you clean it like this when it is already dis-assembled for repair. If you do decide to take it apart, get a lot of pictures before and while you are taking it apart. It would also help to have a screw board and label the hinge rods on the board.
      I hope this helps. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.

    Is there anyway to clean the pads while there still on the saxophone and what solution you would use to clean the pads with? Thanks!

      Dip a cotton swab in water, squeeze the swab to get out most of the water, then use this to clean the pads. This works most of the time, but you can cause damage if you are not careful.

      Thanks for getting back to me.
      And getting back to me so fast. Sorry for the one more question but am I using cold water or warm water?
      Thanks again!

      It does not matter. Just do not use hot water.
