I believe it related to the source of the lead. Manufacturers used whatever was cheap, including old printer's type, which included an impurity which may have been antimony, which is the culprit. I'd knock it out and replace it with better lead, even in a cheap piano - it doesn't take that much longer than shaving and sealing it, and won't recur. Bob Davis
