[pianotech] Cleaning very old plate-Scrubbing bubbles

[Douglas Gregg]

About the long term effects of Scrubbing Bubbles by Johnson not Dow
(thanks). I have some pianos still in my possession that I used
Scrubbing bubbles to clean about 3 years ago and counting. (Sales have
been slow.) There is not corrosion or other deleterious effects so
far. I think that is probably long enough.

one, that are at the end of their life. If there is something that can
extend it another 5-10 years or longer, then I think that would definitely
be the appropriate time to try this out.  In fact, this particular piano
might be a good test vehicle for long term effects.  Although, we'll have
to wait quite a few years to find out!
