Subj: Oiling the Keys

Dear list,
First off I'd like to ask a few people, I hope you know who you
are, to lighten up when emailing this list...it is not a life or death
thing like some people treat it...
Anyway, I have this bearing grease, I think it is called tralene, and it
works really well for oiling anything, but so far I have been reluctant
to stick it in my Clarinet...Does anyone no if it would be harmful in any
way, or if it is ok to use it on the keys. I really think It would work
well, but I dont know...What do the rest of you use to oil your keys...??
