I know what paraffin is you header. I was wondering where one can purchase
wax paper, I have never heard of it, and I don't really know what kind of
shop Wal-mart is, I know they sell/sold guns but not really sure what else.
It was a simple question that you clearly mis-read.

Sorry, what is so difficult in finding paraffin ???? Even in
Britain. Do you have drug stores there ? Ask them. Very
simple. It is very, very, very, very cheap & you can use all
kind of brands as they are all the same.
I never used such during 50 years of professional playing.
Just keeping the bell screw clean works also ....
Dont on-screw the bell with force AND do not de-screw the
bell with force either. Hold the horn at the bell neck with
the left hand & grip the bell with hole right hand & pull
towards yourself. It should work. But this might be
difficult for lefthandists...... (expecting flames now, but
never-mind ....)
