Using sandpaper on tuning pins.

Best way is to use a 80 grade sand paper quarter of a inch wide. Insert it
the full length of the pin grit side down and screw the pin back in.
Punching the pin in has the chance of tearing the paper. If you leave  half
a inch protruding it can be torn off after the pin has been properly wound
in....works well..but too slow a job if the pin block is too bad. CA only is
good if the piano can be put on its back. The only advantage of packing a
pin over replacing the pin is that the packed pin looks the same as the rest
of the pins.

Have fun
