BILL WATROUS trombone slide preparation 1999

Great trombonist BILL WATROUS demonstrates his personal techniques for cleaning and lubricating the handslide. With his [pre-Mount Vernon] New York prototype Bach 16M Stradivarius tenor trombone, Mr. Watrous discusses trombonistic maintenance using a wrapped cleaning rod, Pond's cold cream and distilled water. Videotaped by "some smart dude" (Clyde Yasuhara) on June 6, 1999.

doesn't the trombone dr. in atlanta do more than this guy claims, he knows what chemicals he's using, fixes dents, aligns the slides perfectly. I thought it was more than that
