Saxophone repairman Matt Stohrer of www.StohrerMusic.com shares a tip on how to (sometimes) improve (slightly) burned (vintage nitrocellulose) lacquer (somewhat, depending). But hey when it works, as it does in this video, its pretty great.

Love all the parenthesis! Lol. Great tip!
Absolutely amazing, thank you for helping us vintage addicts. You’re the best!
Great👍
Great tip! thanks
Great tip Matt. Thank you for sharing!
Very smart touch-up.
Good tip. Thank You
Seems like it almost re melts the old lacquer while adding some new lacquer…..blend. Good stuff
Yep. ti's going to contain a solvent to keep the lacquer in solution, and since the old lacquer is the same or similar chemically, the solvent in the new lacquer is able to dissolve the old lacquer when it makes contact
Thank you, this is very informative. Do you carry Dark honey gold Lacquer (cognac) spray to touch up an Alto P Mauriat 67RCL Saxophone? or do you know which color number that matches it?
How do you fix all of the scratches that are on the rest of the saxophone body?
You don't. Refinishing saxophones is generally frowned upon, and it is generally time consuming, difficult to do right, and extremely expensive- and after all that, you have most likely devalued the instrument anyhow.
