1, Never apply grease to the joints or sockets of your flute. It attracts dirt which may become abrasive. Grease is used on instruments with a cork joint. Should the joints become very tight, Simply clean the socket and tenon with a Trevor James silver polish cloth. If the problem persists, or the joints become loose, contact your repair man.

2, Do not use silk cloths to clean inside as they merely redistribute the moisture.

3, Do not leave damp cloths inside the instrument case.

4, Never use liquid metal polish of any type.

5, Avoid straining any mechanism during any care and maintenance procedures.
