Hello Ian. how r u? I have a doubt about this process. I´d love if you could make a video showing the before and after of the cymbal showing the sound of it, before and then after the polishment, and coat. Doenst it affect the sound of it? does the souns of the cymbal "die or turn stuffy? great channel by the way :)

It is what Paiste actually do at the factory. Doesn't affect sound at all.
