'nuther valve oil inquiry
During the break in period on a new tuba, (piston) is there any special valve oil recommended for this?

Re: 'nuther valve oil inquiry
I've given it a pretty thorough bath. Flushed it, soaped up the valve casings and scrubbed them with a baby bottle brush. I keep flooding them with oil too. I'll keep this up for awhile. Kinda like frequent oil changes in a new car during the break-in period. Thanks for the advice.
