Wim, I did read your post. David Swartz said that the contamination if any
should show on the bass string about 17 hrs after exposure. On his website,
he talks about different kind of smoke: Driven or free floating. From my
observation, in this case it was only floating which deposits itsefl on
horizontal surfaces. There was not much on sides and interior of pianos. The
pianos were taken out of the damaged area within 4 hrs and were put in a
room with dryer and fans (I was there about 36 hrs after the fire and the
humidity level was back at 40%). There was no rust or soot on the strings.
So, I still have until monday to submit my estimate. I'm waiting for more
info. If any of you have had experiences with fires (not all are the same
though), please let me know.

Marcel Carey, RPT

    The problem I see is that they probably ?? have a new value
    replacement clause in their insurance policy. Now if the pianos only
    need cleaning, Why would I total them? This is a question of honesty.
    Plus, I've been hired by the claim adjuster co. Of course I would like
    the college to get all brand new pianos, but this ain't my kind of
    lie.

  Please read my post on this. A fire can cause a lot more damage, even to
the inside of a vertical piano, than it looks like.
