[pianotech] piano behavior

[John Ross]

It wouldn't be because it actually works, if the proper lubricant is used?
Then just repin the stubborn ones.
Certainly saves a customer money, unless a person was trying to maximize his/her bill.
Perhaps I am being a bit harsh there.
Some people, might have had a bad experience with lubricants, and swore off them.
But Goose Juice and Protek are two that come to mind, that have proven themselves.

Will this be skinny enough to get between actioi parts to lubricate them, or would the metal oiler work better? I have that one too somewhere. I need to find it again.  If I cannot find it, will places like lowes or home depot sell those or is that somethiing I  need to get throgh a piano supply house?  Thanks again
