Good stuff. ------------------------------------------------------ The only addition -- change -- I would make is to change the amount of talcum powder to a half-and-half mixture of talcum powder and Teflon powder. I call it VJ-T Lube. It works even better than the original. Fill up a plastic 35 mm film can and you'll have enough for many a piano. Del (PS. I also used a motorcycle to transport myself and a limited quantity of tools and materials around for piano servicing back in the 1970s. Great fun.)
