Using a dent roller can do a better job before using the burnisher tool. Not bad on that bell buckle dent.

Did you grease the bell when repairing it? Why and what?
-
Did you grease the metal before taking the dents out? if so, why,and what kind of grease.

@hornfixer What are you using to remove the crinkling? I'm restoring a antique siren that has the same exact problem on the horn.

I have been trying to find mandrels and burnishing tools at a cheap price (even second hand ones) as we cant yet afford to buy all new but it's like trying to find hens teeth lol I would love to see more video's using mandrels and burnishing tools, thank you :)

Great video. Question for you...any idea the cost and trouble to fix little dents around the 1st and 2nd valve slide tubes nipples? They both are stuck. Dents are a result of my son trying to free them with a nylon hammer. also my horn is a Holton Collegiate what is the going price to have it silver plated.

The video is a bit whacked. That looks like a file, but i have to imagine it's some kind of burnishing tool, right? Is that a 'standard' trumpet anvil-type thingie? If not, how do you avoid re-shaping the bell to something awful?

@jmtoor and yeah, kind of dumb to dent an instrument on purpose.
that what it looks like or am I missing something here?
