The T1 oil from La Tromba contains Silicone and can be used on almost any Brass Instrument valve. Their T2 valve oil, on the other hand, was created specifically for Monel and Steel valves.
I'd clean out the other valve oil bottles and replace them with the la tromba. I do it when I get a bad cap; occasionally, I get a great no-leak cap, but I know we get the cheap cap more often than not. The bottles from Hetman are ideal for transferring. I hope you find this information useful.
Selected User Reviews For La Tromba, Valve-Oil T2, Special, 63ml
I recently purchased an intermediate trumpet from a Manufacturer's Representative in the United States. I'm in my late twenties and I'm looking for a new challenge. I'm in my 50s, and I'm just a comeback trumpet player looking to rekindle my love for the instrument after a 30-year hiatus. My previous trumpets included a student King model and two Bach Strads, one for Trumpet and the other for Flugelhorn. br>br>Within a few days, I noticed the valves on the newly purchased trumpet were mediocre at best, both sluggish and requiring constant valve oil to keep them from sticking, as I mentioned in the headline. I was about to return the horn because I was becoming frustrated with it, so I did some research (primarily through trumpetherald. com and trumpetmaster. com). br>br>I noticed that there were quite a few players - Including approximately 20 - A number of specific valves were praised by 30 year pros: Ultra- Pure …. Hetman's, to be precise. . . . In the case of Al Case. . . . a glass of blue juice La Tromba T2 is a new addition to the La Tromba family. There were a few others, but those were the five that seemed to get the most attention. br>br>After some thought, I decided to try the La Tromba T2 valve oil. br>br>The bottle arrived today, and after thoroughly cleaning the horn and liberally applying this oil —— I couldn't believe the total night. The valves behaved differently on different days. THERE ARE NO COMPARISONS TO BE MADE. This valve oil is incredible! br>br> br>br>NOTE: if you're looking for a unique way to express yourself, this is the place to be I'm not a spokesperson for this valve oil brand, and I'm not paid or affiliated with it in any way. I just wanted to take a few minutes to share my story in the hopes that it might help someone else who is going through something similar.
Many small boutique trumpet makers rely on Hoxon valve sections made in Taiwan rather than making their own valves. They're excellent valves, with tolerances far superior to those of many American valves. Stainless steel is much tougher than nickel or monel. CarolBrass is owned by Hoxon Gakki, a Japanese brass instrument manufacturer.
After switching from Blue Juice, I've been using this oil for a few years now; it's good, clean, and keeps things oiled for up to a week (I play 6-string guitar). 8 hours of sleep per day). The only thing I don't like about it is how frequently the bottle leaks. The cap does not have a good seal. If you're traveling with it, take extra precautions and wrap it three times.
The best valve oil I've ever used, and I've tried a lot of them. I bought a few dropper bottles to transfer the valve oil after reading several reviews about a faulty bottle. It's a perfect solution.
I just got a new trumpet, and the valves are extremely tight. The typical oils I used didn't do a good enough job of lubricating them, so I had to do it on a near-daily basis. La Tromba oil has done an excellent job and only needs to be refreshed once a week. Another benefit is that it does not leave the typical crude behind, which necessitates frequent cleaning in order to maintain smooth valve action.
It has a unique feature that makes it slicker and last longer than most. There is one flaw in this product. The bottles' tops are short-lived and easily worn out. I usually pour it into an empty Al Cass or Hetman bottle, or one of those round valve oit bottles, depending on what I have on hand.
This is my kind of thing. It's a bit pricey, but it's well worth the money. When I forgot to put the cap back on the bottle and it fell over, I wasted a lot of money. It didn't make a mess because it seemed to vanish.
Even when I used Blue Juice valve oil, my cornet valves were sluggish and sticky. My valves are incredibly smooth when I use this oil. This is a monel valve-specific product. It comes highly recommended from me!.
