Dale, I think you are on the right track, mostly. I don't see any reason not to use CA in this manner. If you later decide the piano needs new strings, give it a new block. No biggie. CA is often used as a stop-gap until the piano is restrung - at which point it gets a new block as a matter of course. $100 (or whatever) to make it usable until the piano gets a new block/strings is pretty cheap. I don't give warranties on CA either. William R. Monroe All Although I've never CA"D a block. You all have convinced me of it's effective nature but I'm with David on this one. The block is compromised. NO warranty implied. Also if you treat a block in this manner & Later decide it needs strings , is this treated/doped block a worthy candidate or does this not render a potentially restring able block un useable and, again un warrantable? Just asking. Dale Yes I have. The question was not whether it is an effective treatment, it was whether you would offer a guarantee. I would not. If you have to CA the pinblock the block is compromised. I’m not saying it doesn’t work but I wouldn’t offer a guarantee. What if the block fails after your application? While your application would not have caused that you might be held responsible for replacing the block if you offer a “guarantee”.
