I bought a battered drum kit and tried to clean it in 2 hours

I GOT THE GONG IDEA T-shirts available here: https://www.harrywestonc.com/product-... I bought this complete Pearl Export drum kit for just £85 from Facebook Marketplace… then gave myself 2 hours to clean it up and make it presentable again. Covered in dirt, rust, and years of neglect, this mid-2000s Pearl kit looked rough when I picked it up — but underneath it all was a surprisingly solid drum set complete with Pearl hardware and cymbals. In this video, I clean the shells, repaint rusty tom arms, restore the hardware, tune the kit up, record it, and finally try to sell it to see whether the whole project was actually worth doing. Along the way, I talk about why older Pearl Export drum kits still offer amazing value on the used market, how I learned to buy and sell drum gear, and whether cheap drum kits can still sound good with a bit of effort.
