 Re: Corks coming loose

It is virtually impossible to overgrease a cork as long as a good quality cork grease is used. By far the most common failing is the opposite.

I grease my tenon corks daily and have had these corks last easily 10-20 years.

However the quality of the grease is vital.
After 30+ years of using homemade grease I moved about 15 years ago to the Doctors product. Very happy that I got a good cork life using either one.
