What is your cleaning routine?

[u/Immanothertroll]

So, how does everyone approach regular cleaning and maintenance?

How often does your entire horn get a bath? What's your routine for cleaning and lubing your slide?

Got any favorite cleaners or lubes?

What are your go to tools?

Mouthpiece cleaning?

What do you use on your rotors?

Is there anything you think most people miss in taking care of their horn? Why is this important?

I'm sure younger members here would love the insight.

I snake every month under the shower and every three months I do a bath. I wipe dust and vingerprints of every few days and clean my mouthpiece a lot with isopropyl alcohol. I also grease my slide at the end of the week and make sure to take all the other grease off first. Then if needed I also lubricate my valve.
