Should I rinse off with hot water or just cold water?

Sorry to bring up groove juice again. I jut don't want to ruin my cymbals by doing something wrong.

Thanx

I adjust the temp to make it confortable on my hands.  The cymbals will have to suffer if that is not what they like best. Grin

By the way, Louis... I cleaned my cymbals over the weekend and took your advise about doing it in the tub. It worked quite well, actually, but the next time I took a shower, I almost busted my a$$ because the tub was so slippery!  I couldn't STOP moving the enitre time. Next time, I'm going to make sure that I clean the tub after I clean the cymbals...  bah.. silly double duty.  Tongue

Apparently you guys are not married.  You must clean the tub after the cymbals, espceially if you are married.  Groove Juice does a great job on the tub too, or did you notice that?  Did you find the cymbals easy to clean that way?  It is the easiest method I have found to clean them.

Sorry I'm a bit late, but had a question about the Groove Juice and didn't really want to start a new thread.

I used it on some cymbals a great while back (Zildjian AMIR II). These are the cheaper cymbals that come in a pre-pack.

I put the Groove Juice on and rinsed it off, following the instructions. A strange plastic coating began to peel off the cymbals, as if they had a sunburn!

Is this a case of cheap cymbals? Would this be safe to use on my Paiste Signatures / Dimensions?

Sounds like it was a case of the 'cheapies'.

woah, Drumwild!!

for your Paiste cymbals, make sure you use the Paiste cleaner in the orange bottle.  its gentle and safe for that special coating that Paiste uses on their cymbals.  if you're really gonna baby them, you can keep the coating in good shape by reapplying with the Paiste Protector in the blue bottle.  i use this stuff on my Paiste Trad crash, and on my other cymbals, cause it is sooo gentle.

To "rinse off" means to irrigate with water to wash away the remaining cleaner and residue from the cleaning.
