Subject: A different use for Flitz

Ladies and gents, 

I just got through with a job for a really picky customer who had=
 complained about "chipped" keys on an RX2 Kawai.  I suspected=
 glue on the sides of the keytops, and when I got there, I found=
 that I was right.   

I took some very fine sandpaper and took it off.  Unfortunately,=
 in my enthuiasm, I took a some of the shine off of a bit of the=
 keytop....:-(.  Luckily, I had some Flitz metal AND fiberglass=
 polish with me.  After trying it on a dummy keytop I'd brought=
 along as a guinea pig with great results, I used it on the=
 offended key and voila!  Shiny as a new penny!  Mr. Picky was=
 satisfied, at least with the keys..was I surprised to get a call=
 from him an hour later saying that "E above middle C is out of=
 tune?"   

Like many people who can't help but focus too much on small=
 things, it's hard to for them to see the big picture. 

Nonetheless, I learned a new use for a familiar product. =
 Versatile stuff, that Flitz.
