OK, so I've got a nice horn, but its got a few places were the lacquer is worn off. I figure somewhere down the road I'll get it relacquered, but I haven't put a whole lot of thought/effort towards it yet.
Gold brass is fine, I've been playing it my whole life, but black would be BAD ASS (pardon my french, Sean). So... does anyone know how much it costs to get a horn relacquered, where you can get it done in black, etc. etc.
I'm really not even sure of the process. I think its painted on, and then heated or something. Anybody done it at home?
