G'day All,

If you head off to the local Boat Shop, you will often find "spray-on" (aerosol) lanolin - I forget the trade name (and haven't tried it for trumpets yet) but it is used to protect outboard motors from the marine environment - we all may find it a useful alternative, and conveniently packaged and propelled.

I'd be interetsed to see if any of you boaties might have thought to use this stuff. I've got a can in the boatshed and will dig it out tomorrow whwn I am on the water - I might even post a comment - hold that thought.

Just as a lateral thought, my youngest son - the Trombonist - uses Dove cream for lubing his slides - don't tell his Mum, she has no idea were it all goes, and I'm not due for another bloodletting until I buy a new horn.
