Hey, i cleaned my tuba for the first time last night. I must say, the vinegar/ dish soap method was extremely effective. However, it was only until after i had cleaned it that i realized i had no vavle oil(i lost it). I am kind of in a tight spot, since i have a concery 2 days from now, and am in deathly need of practice. Which i cannot do if the vavles wont move. DO you know of any household products that i could use to lube them?
Could wd 40 work? (i have no vaseline)
