Hello everyone, i have currently bought istanbul sultan and turk cymbals, wich are either 100% raw or 50% raw, my curious family members thought touching the raw parts of my sultans would feel cool(and it does!) and got some oily finger marks on them, how are you supposed to clean a raw cymbal, or half raw cymbal?

Good question.  I don't clean cymbals like this, but if I did probably with rain-x  or detail spray... if I had too, cymbal cleaner for heavy buildup.

That unlathed bit takes tools to remove.  Theres no reason you shouldn't be able to use whatever you'd use on fully lathed cymbals.
