Thank you all for the great advice for the oil. The reason that I asked about sewing machine oil, is that this has to be one of the most refined oils ever because of what it has to do, be an oil that will not make anything sticky, gooey, etc. This has to cause the parts oiled in the machine to run swiftly, and a sewing machine can get hot, then cold, then hot when used, etc., etc.
The thing though that I know of a sew-er that chooses to re-oil her Bernina every so many hours of use (she sews a lot), and thereby; it obviously is so fluid that it does not last in the machine. Yet, it is made to make a sewing machine work beautifully.
So it made me think how wonderful this could work on an instrument.
But also, the advice about the motor or gear oil; that too would require a special use where the gears and motor would work at its best.
So, in the respect of the use of motor/gear oil for a car, this would have to also work well for tiny things, like parts on a clarinet.
I do love my ultra deal clarinet, and I want to take good care of it.
Thanks.
