I've used LaTromba T2 on my horns and liked it. I'm curious about the other two variants, T1 and T3. How do they compare to each other? Would be using on moderately old horns, like early Elkhart Bach and maybe a Blackburn. Thanks

I use T2 and T3. T2 is terrific but can be slow on some valves. I find that T3 is indeed lighter and better for faster action on some of my horns. It's still not as fast and something like Blue Juice or Al Cass Fast but those don't last nearly as long.

My biggest gripe is that the caps keep breaking.

I've been using T1 on a couple horns and their "fast oil" on my main horn. I really like them. T1 doesn't seem to last quite as long as their other variations.
