Subj: What type of Cork Grease to Use?
Date: Sun, 20 Feb 1994 09:18:02 -0500

In a recent letter, Cary Karp (nrm-karp@-----.su) observed that
certain thypes of cork grease cause the cork to deteriorate. What types
of cork grease can be used that would not cause such an adverse
reaction? Furthermore,what types of grease harm the cork. Given my
investment in my clarinet, this type of information is very important to
me. Thanks in advance for any suggestions or recommendations.
