I've read here before that almond oil was recommended for oiling a wooden clarinet (I also recall a lot of discussion of what was the best oil to use!). Is oiling the clarinet a do-it-yourself deal or best left to a service tech?
As for procedure, I read that you should protect your pads by covering the holes with plastic and then swab the bore with an old swab soaked in oil. Let sit for about 24 hrs and swab out any excess. Is this all there is to it? Can I do any damage if not done correctly?
Finally, what is the frequency - once per year? Thanks in advance for the advice.
