No Karl, I haven't tried it yet. Thanks for the info, I'll order some and let players know.
One thing not covered on the videos for cork replacement is after the new cork is on the joint I usually wrap the jointed cork with thick rubber bands, maybe just one, and this pushes/presses the cork more tightly while the contact cement dries, maybe an hour or so. Then I will trim the cork down using one of those sandpaper nail files, until you get the correct thickness of the cork. You want a very tight fit, so use cork grease at this point. The new cork should last a number of years. Maybe 3 years before the joint gets wobbles again. A lot of players don't realize you can get air leaks from poor fitting and old cork on the joints. Needless to say this can cause all sorts of horn issues when practicing and playing. There's nothing better than a horn that seals for about 1 minute.
