Can a yellowed Strata White wrap be restored?

[jpdedrummer]

Recently I took my 2nd kit, a Pearl EXR, out of the bags after multi-year storage during covid. And noticed the Strata White wrap on the kickdrum and floortom are yellowed. Somehow, the other drums of the kit retained their original colour.

Of course I can leave it as it is, but I would prefer to restore the original colour to match the rest of the kit again.
If it can't be restored by polishing or a chemical treatment, rewrapping may be an option. However, so far I haven't been able to find this wrap online. I think Pearl is offering a similar wrap on their new kits, but haven't got a reply from the dealer if it can be bought seperately.

Any tips or ideas will be very appreciated!

That's a bummer !

But you can't buy Pearl's wrap seperatly. I tried it myself (i wanted Strata Red wrap to finish an 18" floor to match the rest of the kit) to buy just the wrap but i got an "NO" as answer. I see you are from the Netherlands (i'm from Belgium) so you have to deal with Pearl Europe and they are not very cooperative to say the least !!

That does not bode well...

Found a wrap on drummaker.net that looks VERY similar to the original.... any experiences with them?http://www.drummaker.net/partsguide/...0228301&-find=

That would be Andy Foote at Drummaker. Been around for years, good rep.

Since you're in the Netherlands, ST Drum in Germany may be a closer option for that wrap.
