 Re: Ran out of cork grease? Here's some possible alternatives

Heres a concept, dont use any:)
The cork grease ends up picking up grit and becomes a grinding paste that wears down the tenon. From my experience properly attached corks without cork grease last up to 20 years. I would rather see the cork as a frangible asset than wear the joint tenons down. E.g. 40+ year old tenons on my older clarinet are unmarked/unworn.
Cheers
