Hi Folks
I have a problem with the finish on the kit and wondered if anyone had any ideas?
I have a Ludwig Silver Sparkle Kit, some of which dates from 1976 and the rest around 2000, the 1976 part is fine however the more recently purchased (and built for me by Ludwig) has started to change colour, the sparkle is going a yellowish colour and is clearly different from when new.
I can't tell if it's the top film or coming through from maybe the glue underneath.
the older finish is absolutely fine and a clear as it was when first made.
Does anyone have any ideas here? can it be removed without resorting to re-covering? has anyone had this happen to them?
Normally I would expect the older part of the kit to fade or lose it's finish first but in this case the toms that were purchased from two different retailers but both ordered directly from Ludwig have altered.
Any help apprieciated
