Blue Juice is pretty awesome, but it smells like crap.

Hetman light piston oil is very awesome, but it`s expensive.

Synthetic oils need to be applied less frequently, but they smell worse, and sometimes have a tendecy to mix with the dirt in your horn to make a sticky black crap.

Real oils are more expensive, work better, don`t make the black crap, have no odor, but need to be used more often. Also, applied in larger amounts.

I use Al Class Fast oil. It works for me, but I have to re-oil them all the time.

I use Al Cass too. I does not breakdown or gel up at all - even in the most extreme conditions.
