What is everyone using for their tuning slides that they move often when playing?

I've used Schilke slide grease for years.

Please search the threads. There is much discussion in other threads on the issue of lubricants in all contexts: slides, valves, linkages, etc.

Oil, not grease. I use the Schilke stuff, too. It is great. But it does not give the slide the trombone handslide-like action the OP is probably looking for. For that, I use whatever works, which varies from horn to horn with the quality of the slide assembly from the factory. I like Hetman's slide oil and that 3 in 1 oil you can get at Walmart. (Not together, of course.) For the other slides I use lanolin-based stuff, Schilke being my favorite.
