Yeah, I collect them from pianos I tune. But, how do you test its efficacy?
It has a life span of some kind.The Zorb-It advertises that you don't have
to regenerate it. Hmmm, I see more reading in my future...

Why buy it.

Doesn't it still come packed with the new pianos from Japan and Korea. Most
stores just throw it away, I am sure they would be pleased to give you some.

List,

I was searching the web for "regenerating desiccant" and came across this
product: http://www.zorb-it.com

Has anyone used it? I'm going to order some for protecting the tools in my
trunk.

With respect to regenerating the desiccant you find in pianos, I've heard
you can microwave it to regenerate it. Anyone know if this works? The
drierite.com web site has instructions for doing it in a conventional oven,
but I didn't see any instructions for the kind in the paper bags. Anyone
know?

Thanks,

John Formsma
