oil

[Don]

Hi Alicia,

The problem with most lubricants is that they leave a film on the parts
which after a time "gums up" with dust. They may work for some time but so
far no one has found an oil that will work without failing.

Here is something to try with the "Hoppes" oil. Get a white blotter. Apply
a "dot" of oil. If a stain or discoloration is left behind then it is most
probably not appropriate for piano use.

Please remember that this list is open to the public. Your comments are
being set down for as long as the internet will exist--so try to keep to
technical issues.
