STP works well for slides because it is a mixture of polyisobutylene and oil. IT STINKS because it contains a small amount of a phosphorous compound, which is probably zinc dithio phosphate. You can get the polyisobutylene material without the stinky zinc dithio phosphate at auto stores. Look in the oil treatment section for a very viscous material which does not contain phosphorous. I bought something that I believe would suit you well at NAPA in Fairhope, AL. It is called "Professionals Choice OIL TREATMENT" manufactured by Professionals Choice, Durham, NC. This juice works well on tuba slides and doesn't stinks.
