Trumpet valve oil as lube?

I play trumpet and have lots of valve oil bottles just sitting around. I heard in another thread that it can double as thin lube. If this is true, i could make some beastly lube. there is this valve oil i have called blue juice that is the fastest oil on the market. that with a little bit of yyj thin lube could make a extremely fast bearing. So if you have ever put valve oil on your bearing please tell me if it worked or not. I really don’t wanna ruin my bearing so tell me!!!

That’s all i use… cuz i don’t have thin lube so it works fine… actually my bearing was spinning for like five seconds on a flick… then i put some valve oil in it and it was up to like twelve after i wore it in

Wow 12 mins. What yoyo where u using and also do i have to take the shields off to put lube on?

He meant 12 sec. And you don’t have to take the shields, I personally leave my shields off though

Yeah, valve oil will work just fine. Just like the good old thin lube.
