[pianotech] U1 - stained bass strings

[Carlos Ralon]

Contact www.wescottcompany.com for the "L&R" product. It is Concentrated 
Ammoniated solution. Mix about 7 parts water to 1 part product.  They sell 
it by the pint or gallon. I use it to clean and soak small solid metal parts 
(not plated).  The bass string treatment was a VERY small amount, full 
strength, on a rag and rubbed on the offending stain. Wear a mask. Hope it 
works.
Carlos Ralon, RPT
