I suggest never getting silicone within ten miles of a piano. There are more effective and SAFE center pin lubricants available. Get Proteck, it works , is safe for pianos and humans and is designed for pianos. Silicone is NOT a lubricant. It is a strain reliever. It is also like BBs. Dop a few and they are all over the place. Silicone will relieve the strain between capo bar and strings, between tuning pins and block and will lift any keytop that has a strained glue joint. Newton nhunt@rci.rutgers.edu
