Litter box soundboard

[Mark Bolsius]

Jim,

 

If it isn't already happening, you're going to have a lot of rust on the
strings and the bass strings will definitely end up sounding at least tubby,
at worst, really rattly or even breaking.

 

Your piano owner is up for a re-string. They should check their household
contents insurance and see if they are covered - I've heard it referred to
as "Animal Impact".

 

They may not be successful, but it's worth mentioning to them. 

 

Good luck

 

Mark Bolsius

 I have a customer with a Kawai grand which has apparently been used as a 
litter box.  I'm looking for suggestions for removing stains from the 
soundboard without further damaging the strings with cleaning liquids.  I 
have cleaned it using dry methods but it still looks gross.  Attached is a 
photo of the problem. Any help will be greatly appreciated. You can see the
mess is you go to the following link.
