therealting Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) Tried something a little different today, compared with the boiling that lots of people do. Can you hear a difference?

Lfalex v1.1 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Did you use water in the ultrasonic cleaner? Iso-propyl alcohol might be good, depending on how much your cleaner holds. Check if it's a fire hazard if used in a such a cleaner, though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therealting Posted February 28, 2019 Author Share Posted February 28, 2019 I used water with a little bit of washing up liquid, then did it again with just water. I am thinking of having a container of isopropyl alcohol around to soak strings in though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebenezer Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I use an ultrasonic cleaner with methylated spirits.....does a better job than boiling your strings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skidder652003 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 I left some old strings overnight in a container with some isopropyl alcohol, wow what a difference, like new again, but I don't know for how long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
