I've not had satisfactory results with it. Hi, Les Now, that's very interesting. Can you describe how you did it? How much, timing, condition before you started, maybe piano brands, whether the pinblock had had glycerin tightener before? Had the pins been tapped down already? Were there plate bushings? I wonder if the humidity in Houston may have affected how far in it got before it set up? Ted Sambell didn't like the stuff, either, but I think it was because the air at Banff was so dry it wouldn't set. Susan
