Reka Cleaning Kit for Trombone

Keeping your instrument internally clean is critical for reliable performance, hygiene and general maintenance.

Saliva accumulating on the walls of the tubes contains aggressive components which attack and corrode the tubes from the inside.
This deposit muffles the resonance of the instrument, blowing becomes more difficult.
Regular treatment with this cleaning set prevents these problems from ever arising.
