But once they are clean I have had really good luck with using the the blow dry brass system when I’m done playing for the day. Then I oil the valves before I first play everyday.
I don’t have those brown deposits on the inside on my valve ports. Just a couple of tiny dots from that time I forgot to use the bdb system, my valves still look new inside and out!
