Joe Hetman is a former General Motors mechanical engineer and currently-gigging brass player as well as maker of instrument lubricants, so if ATF was good for a brass instrument, I think he'd be incorporating that into his product line. I attended an extremely in-depth clinic he presented at the NAPBIRT (Instrument Repair) national convention two years ago, and there was so much chemistry involved that many repair techs in attendance were just scratching their heads. Now, I took a bit of chemistry in school, and was digging it.
With Hetman offering approximately 22 different viscosities of non-toxic, synthetic lubricants that have viscosity enhancers and anti-corrosion agents, and work right every time without mixing, I have no desire to mess with other lubricants any more.
