Hello!

Thanks to all for the advice on mixing graphite with alcohol. I did just 
that and rubbed it on the jacks with a old piano hammer. Well, it worked 
well enough, but not perfect. The thing is, it won't stick very well. 
Certainly not as well as the old graphite, which forms a pretty thick film 
on the face of the jack.
So, did the builders add some secret ingredient to the mix in the old days 
to make it stick?

What should I do?
