People! This woman is wrong but keep in mind that just because a bottle says "bore oil" doesn't mean you know what's in it! Many commercial "bore oils" have some amount of mineral oil in them, which is not as good for the wood. I've been told to use groundnut oil or sweet almond oil.

And for god's sake use a SMALL amount and test it on the bell or the barrel before jamming a swab in like she does! It is better to under-oil and repeat than to over-oil.

Lemon oil???? Are you serious? how about using bore oil, thats what its been designed for. And another thing. you didn't protect any of the pads when you put oil on the clarinet. Now the pads have oil on them which greatly reduces the life of the pad, because they soak up the oil and eventually will stop sealing the hole. To fix this place a small piece of paper between the pad and the hole.

To everyone else, don't listen to this woman.... she has no idea.
