Description
Oil for a wooden body. It is used to prevent the wood from drying out or cracking. A properly maintained body also improves sound quality by allowing for even airflow. The oil also creates a protective layer that prevents moisture from accumulating inside the instrument.
Note: It is important to oil a piccolo if it has not been played for a long time, or when the heating season begins—the drier time of year. If you are not sure how to do it, it is better to go to a professional technician so that the flute does not crack or open up like a book if it is over-oiled.
