Re: tight barrels

aminor,

WD40? I think not.

In my experience, unless the corks are very thin to begin with it takes quite awhile for cork grease to work its way through and react with the glue so that the corks come off, particularly if the cork has been treated (as it should have been) with lanolin or paraffin before its first "greasing." But, if you're worried about this potential problem (or even if you're not), if you go to the "accessories" section of the sponsors of this board and click on "The Doctor's Products," you can find some cork lubricants that will not harm your corks.

Best regards,
jnk
