This is a very entertaining thread, I must say! Love it! I do believe in trying a student's equipment just once in a great while, especially when teaching about reed adjustment or when suggesting a new mouthpiece or barrel or such thing. I guess I used to worry about diseases years ago when a teacher would play my stuff. In fact, I did get sick a few years ago from flu/bronchitis and it could have been from the clarinet teacher playing my equipment, I think the bug did go around the studio. But, I usually gain some insight, especially the lessons he taught me about reed adjustment. It would be nice to gain this kind of insight without risking infection. So, what kind of product would you use that is effective and doesn't change the way the reed/mouthpiece plays and doesn't taste bad and is convenient and portable? Is there something different you can use on the clarinet keys, or is that going overboard?
