Last year a band I play with had to play in driving rain at a memorial day parade. I dried the instrument (B & H Imperial) off after the gig but a few days later I started to get clicks and clunks from the keywork. On stripping the keys off I found that most of the springs and rods showed signs of rust. I lubricate the instrument regularly, so this surprised me. I've switched to a lithium-based light marine grease, which stays where its put and doesn't migrate. No problems so far.
