Yamaha Trombone Slide Oil
|
This new product from Yamaha is made to compete with Slide-O-Mix Rapid Comfort, and Reka Superslide. It's a thick, milky combination of silicone and soap, in a single 30ml bottle. Wipe off your slide, dribble some of this on, and you may spray with water if it seems too thick, but some players might use this product alone. Use very sparingly, and you'll have a smooth as glass slide. | $8 |
| Slide O Mix | This is the revolutionary slide lube made in two parts. Large bottle is water and soapy detergent. Small bottle is silicone. One drop of the small, and a 4" line of the large on your inner tubes, and you're ready to go. It's easy to adjust the consistency by applying the ingredients independently. The large bottle works nicely when mixed with Trombotine too. | $13 |

| Zaja Slide™ and Zaja Blue™ are new additions
to family of Zaja Lubricants. They are the most technologically
advanced lubricants ever developed for the music industry. Blended
with TFBS™ additives to increase lubricity and protect all
components more than any product available today. With the assistance
of some of the biggest names in music and years of evaluation this
unique formulation was created by professionals for professionals.
Minimizing and eliminating the constant wear and friction and their costly effects upon an instruments ability to perform have long been our goal in the development of these products. At Zaja we designed these new lubricants to improve lubricity while having outstanding anti-wear characteristics. That's why our specially blended micronized TFBS™ additives are optimized to enable our lubricants to perform their best in even the most demanding circumstances. By lowering the surface energy needed to operate valves and slides with our special additives, the coefficient of friction is greatly reduced. All lubricants eventually evaporate or lose their lubricating abilities, but when using the new Zaja Lubricants special additives are still present to keep slide and valves working. We have even taken into account the musicians body chemistry and designed these lubricants to blend and work well no matter what the situation. Using Zaja Slide™ and Zaja Blue™ lets you realize the positive benefits of proper lubrication to help reduce wear, improve rotor, piston and slide function, as well as protect the instrument from corrosion and oxidation. Zaja new family of Lubricants with TFBS™ helps your horn play like it should. |
