Polyurethane (2 composants) for German ones. since .... ???

Traditional soundboard varnish (or lacquer , I don't know where lies
the difference) is somewhat soft (lot of colophane and soft resins) I
presume, and I don't recall having seen any on a Steinway.

Fairly possible that cellulose lacquer was used in the 50'

The answer vary always on those matters.

The glue for soundboard ribbing, nowadays was and is yet hot hide
glue.
