Jack with her tenors - they don't need cymbal polish, but if they did we'd use lemon juice!
Jack, our oldest daughter, is a drummer and she is making a special appearance with the elementary school band in May. She has to clean up her drum kit and take it with her for the performance, but we noticed her cymbals were not looking their best. So we checked the cupboards, no cymbal cleaner.
A quick check of the internet revealed a green, and frugal, solution – lemon juice.
Luckily lemons were on sale last week and I picked up a bunch of them. She cut them in half and rubbed them on the cymbals and the results were even better than cymbal cleaner – and it smelled a lot better too.
So, if your drummer needs cleaner cymbals, try lemon juice!
