Haven't seen any Garfield's Pinblock Restorer in over 15 years - never felt like it worked good enough to warrant using it. I distinctly remember it being "prestone green", though, as Ron indicated. Interestingly, the only time I ever was aware that it had a long-lasting positive impact on a piano, was when a "do-it-yourselfer" bought some from me and treated his grand with it by removing the action, TURNING THE ENTIRE PIANO UPSIDE DOWN, and treating the block from the bottom, where he was able to saturate the hole. I have tuned this PSO for him for over 15 years now, and the pins are doing extremely well!
