Not only skid potential, but with the right technique (takes a lot of experience and expertise here) you can actually shoot a rib across the room (talk about having some glue to clean up)! I have found, as I think Ron N. pointed out, that slow application of air pressure is the best way to avoid rib movement. That initial "tack" seems to set up pretty good in just a minute or two - you can get that initial tack with five or ten pounds of air - not enough to send the rib elsewhere, but enough to get the initial tack. Best way to tell if you have put too much air in hose initially is if the rib moves. ;-) Terry Farrell ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ron Nossaman" <RNossaman@cox.net> To: "Pianotech" <pianotech@ptg.org> Sent: Monday, September 22, 2003 11:02 PM Subject: Re: Glue cleanup on ribs > > > Ron now that you mention it I haven't encountered any skid with the > > tight bond only the cold hide.
