So far, so good!!

OK, this is probably stupid, but why not....

St. Patrick's Day special - ONE DAY ONLY - everything in the store is half-off.

Love,

I really like the slide oil and grease. Unfortunately, the valve oil just doesn't do the trick for me...BUT...I let the lady who sits next to me in the Concert Band try it, and she loves it. She bought a bottle, and I gave her the bottle I bought. She had been using the Al Cass oil, and likes the Monster Oil much better.

Which oil did you try? We'll send out a different viscosity free of charge to make sure you get the right stuff - it's all part of our deal.

I tried the regular viscosity as part of the package deal. I'm guessing I'd need the light viscosity...I've been using the Ultra Pure, and it works well and lasts. The Monster Slide Oil works very well. I'll PM you my info...I'll be happy to try what you recommend...

Check us out at the National Trumpet Competition this weekend! We'll have a free lubing station set up at the Shires table.

Chris will be wandering around - be sure to ask him how he got the nickname "Cookie".

We're working on distribution everywhere - don't have anything lined up in Germany - if you have any leads we're all ears!

I will just ask every shop if they have Monster Oil and then act incredibly annoyed when they say no

!

But I saw that you actually do ship internationally?

Shame them! Love it.

We do ship internationally.

Monster, I live in Germany. Have you spoken to Thomann.de? Huge retailer here in Europe.

Monster Oil · Posted: Thu Mar 19, 2015 6:36 pm Post subject:

Haven't contacted them yet. Honestly, we've been dragging our feet in Europe a bit on purpose. We are just now finalizing our rotor oil and bearing/linkage formulas, and hope to start bottling them (with needle tip applicator) within 6 months. We are going to hit Europe pretty hard once we have those products in hand.
And our trombone oil is so close we can almost taste it! So much to do still. We're just taking it one step at a time. It's a fun journey though!

Best,

Tom

Maybe you should contact www.brasserie-shop.de. It's a little shop in Germany, and as far as I know they also have someone located in the US. I just ordered a Curry MPC from them, which they ordered for me from the US. They offer plenty of brass stuff you usually can't get in other German stores. Maybe they are intressed and probably easy to get in contact with!

Thank you to Monster Oil for following through with their promise to send a bottle of their Faster oil. It arrived today, and I will be testing it out over the next couple of weeks. Good customer service is rare these days...but you followed through and that means a great deal!

Dang... I will just have to push intl. shipping costs, taxes and custom duty to the back of my mind and order this stuff

Thanks for the kind words. Please let us know how it works out for you.

The Monster Oil "Faster" formulation is working very well so far! The valves have remained fast and smooth so far, and it has lasted through a couple of rehearsals and home practice. I'll be letting others give it a try as well...

The bonus is that I also get to support a new, small business, who are also serving our country. Thanks!

Sorry to all of you who have tried to purchase today - we've been out of stock of a bunch of products. Demand has been getting a bit out of control as of late. We're ramping up our efforts to make sure everybody gets what they need and everything is currently listed on the site as back in stock.

Thanks for your patience,

Monsters
