Selmer Bore Oil
Prevents moisture absorption in wood. Tasteless, odorless. 1-1/2 oz. bottles.
To apply oil you use an old, non-fuzzing cotton cloth, that you dip into the oil-mix and then pull through your instrument (preferably with an aluminium flute wiper). After 15 minutes you remove the excess oil that has not been sucked up by the wood. All cloth parts that had contact with the oil must be stored in a firesafe place (like a closed steel bucket). They are not poisonous, but they might selve-ignite.
I recommend to oil the bore of a relatively new instrument about every two to three months. Later, when the instrument gets older, you do it only once a year (like when you have it for a yearly overhaul). The outer surface can be rubbed just once a year, and again, remove the excess oil 15 minutes later. This will clean away the sticky crusts from skin fat and sweat as well. But make sure the oil does not sink into the tone holes or the holes for the mechanique because it will make these stick as well.
