 This is the stuffMar 21, 2007
By T. Cox
Trombotine is great. Not only does it work at least as well as any other slide cream, but if you buy one tube, it will last years--chances are you'll lose it before you use it all up. I've had the same tube since 2004. Enjoy.

Best grease, last long, non-expensiveDec 06, 2011
By Gene
I bought it for my son as his private teacher recommended. The grease is easy to apply, absolutely necessary to play trombone.

My go-to lube.Oct 14, 2011
By Steve
I've used this stuff on my trombone for my ten years as a trombonist (trough out middle school, high school, and now college) and never had issue with it. I've experimented with slide-o-mix and the Yamaha oil, but I find this works longer and has a 'creamier' action that I prefer. I usually lube up once a month or so, and it works fine for me (I play daily), and the only thing you have to do is spray it a few times with water every once and a while. Great product, and the king of slide lubes.

Trombotine slide lubricantMar 20, 2012
By Buscrusher
I first learned of Trombotine from a US Navy Band instrument repairman in about 1979 when I was on active duty at the US Naval Academy band. I had just bought a new Bach 50 B3 bass trombone, and he suggested that I try it...he was impressed with the way it made a slide...well...SLIDE! Prior to using Trombotine I had used Conn SuperSlick for a number of years. Trombotine uses a similar principle...clean the inner and outer slides properly first, then put a small amount of it on the slide stockings (extra emphasis on the words "small amount" should be noted...it goes a long way), then after it's thoroughly rubbed on the stockings and up and down the rest of the slide, spray water on it, and play. One application typically lasted me for a full 4-hour 18-piece big-band dance gig, and definitely long enough for a 2-hour-plus rehearsal. I've used nothing else since I found it, and a tube lasts a LOOOOOOONG time if you apply the right amount...which isn't much. When one of my sons appropriated the last tube I had to use on his trombone (before ordering another here on Amazon) I was sort of lamenting not having the above-mentioned repair shop to buy a new one, but was VERY happy to find it here! Considering that I don't play nearly as much as I used to, my guess is that this tube will now last me literally for the rest of my playing life...as long as I don't LOSE it somewhere! BUY some...if you are a playing pro (or student, for that matter) using a slide grease (not oil, then grease...the two don't mix...you need to use one or the other, or risk ruining your slide!), and you use it correctly, you WILL be happy!

Love It!Jan 08, 2012
By Joshua Melton
"saved by Jesus"
I used this both in high school and am using it in college. It works really well and keeps my slide going. It did a good job with a dent in my slide, but during that time I was having to reapply frequently.
