A couple of years ago, I experiemented with making PianoLac into hammer =
juice.  It worked great, barely smelled at all, and hardened quickly.  =
The effect was permanent and consistent.  Used a little more than =
lacquer juice, but that made it more controllable, less likely to =
overjuice.


The stuff is additive, that is, it doesn't melt into itself like =
lacquer.  Can't reverse it by soaking in acetone.  But it seems to =
penetrate deeper than lacquer, and takes voicing needles very well.

It leaves no stain on the felt.

Anyone interested can email or call and I'll send you some for the cost =
of shipping.  If there's evough demand, I'll put it in the regular =
PianoLac line.

  How about alcohol and shellac flakes, I'm sure it would be the least =
offensive, but does it work?  Susan Kline? Tell us about it.


              Any thing that goes into a hammer that is liquid and then =
hardens has to have a stinky solvent.

      I've got some new bass hammers in a Baldwin 6000 that sound like =
marshmallows gently wafting against bedsprings--no power at all.

      Where the piano is, I can't put anything on them that will be too =
stinky or hazardous to breathe. How can I harden these babies without =
traditional lacquer?
