Hi Andre, This have to be experimented : spraying Teflon (solvents) on the ecsaine artificial leather. I believe it can be dangerous . Freindly wishes. Isaac OLEG 4. I have noticed this problem also, and in particular, with Schimmel uprights. Lubing the jack heads with McLube helps immediately and is extremely effective, especially in combination with a sharp regulation. With plastic jacks however, you have to be very careful and not spray too long and too much, the plastic may turn into a candle. friendly greetings from André Oorebeek Amsterdam - The Netherlands 0031-20-6237357 0645-492389 0031-75-6226878 www.concertpianoservice.nl www.grandpiano.nl "where music is, no harm can be" On 13-apr-04, at 19:33, gordon stelter wrote: > Dear List, > I am truly and deeply touched ( with no sarcasm ) > by the outpouring of suggestions regarding my > wrestling match with this U3!
