Hi
I managed to buy little bottles with brushes and a wider neck (easier to
pour oil in) on ebay-they're used for aromatherapy.
Just to add to what has already been said on oils, I have gone through the
various suggestions over the years and have come back to neatsfoot oil.
Olive was OK. Liquid parafin becomes sticky and I have had problems with
sticking keys, which an excellent piper reported he also had a similar
problem.
Like Anthony, the aroma of neatsfoot whilst playing has a similar effect on
me as olive oil does to him!!

Subject: [NSP] NSP oil for pipes and key pads
Hi all,
I know this question has probably been asked before, but what oil should
I use to oil the wood and the key pads on my NSP? Also, how does one
obtain the little nail polish bottle with the cap/brush that I've seen
professional use when oiling their pipes? Thank you.
