Thanks Wim, Dale, Gerry and Susan for your responses.


Susan, writing has been done with chalk, pencil, pen... everything short of an engraver, it seems!  Some of these implements (aided by their heavy-handed users) have left indentations.

Yamaharecommends using naptha to remove adhesive residue from their high glosspoly dampers, and this has worked well for us. Â What would cleanadhesive and writing (!) off of satin lacquer finished dampers (such asSteinway)?


Citrus solvent is much nicer to be around than naphtha, assuming that itsoily nature doesn't react badly with the satin finish. 
I tend to use a few drops of citrus solvent on a barely damp shop towelfor adhesive residues. It has to be dry enough not 
to drip down onto the damper felt, of course.

What was the writing done with? Has it left an indented impression on thedamper heads?
