---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Protek applied to the bearings and counter bearings (felt in tenor) helps the string to pull smoothly. I have pianos which were always pinging, most of them are still good after a treatment with Protek eight years ago. Dry lube will not get under the wire like a liquid will. I don't use the spray version.

I was told by a local tech, to use "Mclube", but after a little research, i found the ad for Mclube clearly states: 'do not spray near tuning pins, strings or finished surfaces'. Let me also emphasize that I'm talking about using a dry type lubricant ONLY at the agraffes and/or the pressure bar area, to help make sure the string pulls up as smoothly as possible. Any suggestions?
