WE TESTED IT, AND THIS IS WHAT WE FOUND…
What’s it like?
Ultra-Pure Trombone Slide Lube shares many similarities with other popular synthetic lubricants, including Slide-O-Mix Rapid Comfort, Yamaha Slide Lubricant, Reka Super Slide, and Monster Oils Slide Cream. What sets it apart is its thinner viscosity.
That thinner consistency makes it a great choice for slides with tighter tolerances or players who prefer a lighter, faster feel. It spreads into a thin, even film that delivers smooth slide action without feeling heavy or sluggish.
Another notable feature is how hydrophobic this lubricant is. A light mist of water activates it extremely well, creating an even quicker, more effortless feel.
It also has a pleasant, clean aroma and performs well without building up, gumming up, or leaving residue behind over time.
If you’re looking for a lubricant that feels fast, clean, and effortless, Ultra-Pure is definitely worth a look.
How do I apply it?
Clean and dry the inner tubes first. Apply a tiny amount of lubricant to the stockings, work it in with your fingers, and then wipe lightly so only a thin sheen remains. Assemble and work the slide through its full range, 1st position to 7th position. If the slide feels too slow, heavy, or draggy, wipe off the excess (even if it feels like there is barely anything there). You’ll usually find you need less of this lubricant than you think. Spritz the slide with distilled water and you’re good to go!
This is a synthetic lubricant, which means that it plays well with others. While we always recommend removing old lubricants from any slide before applying new ones, in our testing, we have found this lubricant to work just fine without excessive cleaning first. Simply wipe off the inner tubes and apply the lubricant. If you find this yields less than desirable results, swab the inside of the outer tubes and reapply.
Reapply only when the slide starts to feel dry or loses its smooth response. In normal use, a single application lasts a long time.
TromboneLAB’s Take
Why we like it:
I’ve learned over the years that you can never have too many lubricants—every trombone slide has its own “personality,” and sometimes it takes the right match to make everything click. That’s why TromboneLAB offers the most complete lineup of lubricants anywhere online. So you can always find the one your slide responds to best.
Ultra-Pure is one of my favorite liquid slide lubricants when I want the fastest possible feel. Its thinner viscosity works especially well on slides with tighter tolerances, and it responds incredibly well to water. A couple of drops and a quick mist are all it takes to create a slick, lightweight film that keeps the slide feeling fast, smooth, and effortless. It also stays remarkably clean over time, without the residue or build-up that some lubricants can develop with extended use. As a bonus, its pleasant, clean aroma makes using it just a little more enjoyable.
I love this stuff, and I really think you will too!
