  Hi, 


  One more idea to throw in here.  I dislike painted agraffes, so on pianos where I am not replacing or refinishing them, I put bullet casings over them during spraying.   The original agraffes stay clean.

    Maybe someone can chime in and identify the  issue, but a couple years back someone published an very thorough excellent article in the PTG Journal all about prepping (shaping/polishing) new and used agraffes. I've been following the procedures described in the article and find the results very much worthwhile.

      Al,

      At what point do you replace agraffes rather than recondition them?  And do you use this method on new ones as well as used?
