Paul....I highly recommend Binak "PRO". All of the problems I used to have with Al Cass are solved. I've been using it in my Schilke (which brand as you probably are aware is also famous for "tight tolerance" valves) for a year. The pistons are as clean as a whistle and it has NEVER started to "sluggish up" on me during a concert.
Just clean, wipe & swab and then reoil (2 drops per piston) once a week. The bottle I have been using is down so that there is only about 85 - 90% left AFTER A YEAR! I'm going to be able to will the rest of the bottle to my son when I die! The second bottle I use in the cornet and the flugel but they spend more time "in the cases" so that bottle is barely below "FULL".
Sorry for the slight "off topic". I return you now to your previously scheduled program.
