Edwards Slide grease

Post by Specialk3700 »

Has anyone had better luck with edwards slides using anything other than trombotine?

Do not use Edwards Slide Grease on on the hand slide. Or any grease.

I've started using Yamaha purple again, plus a drop of superslick pro. Seems to work now. I was forvetting to REALLY shake the purple before I used it.

Yamaha slide lubricant works like a charm after I wiped the cream off the inners and cleaned the inside of the outer slide.

I forgot to mention that I apply it sparingly: a large drop to each stocking and a large drop near each cork barrel.

I use Yamaha on everything. Clean the slide well and anything should work.

I use the Yamaha stuff on my Edwards slides and non-Edwards slides.

The Yamaha works very well on my Edwards t-350E
