This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment My understanding Lance, is that Emralon has been used in Steinway cloth bushings since the early eighties, following the discontinuance of Teflon II. i.e.; Emralon is apparently the third incarnation of "permafree." (historical correction certainly welcomed) BTW Lance, under the impression that even "pure" methanol (methyl hydrate) has a percentage of water, I usually begin with a straight dose, rather than water dilution. However, I get the picture your climate is as "damp" as ours is "dry." We all gotta use what works! best regards, Mark Cramer Brandon University -----Original Message----- From: caut-bounces@ptg.org [mailto:caut-bounces@ptg.org]On Behalf Of llafargue Sent: Wednesday, March 24, 2004 8:11 AM To: 'College and University Technicians' Subject: action centers/Emralon In the winter 2004 issue of “The Steinway Technician” from Steinway, they mention that Emralon is used in their action centers now. Does anyone know how long they have used it in centers? Can anyone tell me how common the use of Emralon is in action center bushing cloth and who uses it in their centers today? I ask because I use Methanol and grain alcohol to ease bushings and knowing ahead would allow me to know more accurately how to apply, (% Water, heat) etc. Lance Lafargue, RPT LAFARGUE PIANOS New Orleans Chapter, PTG 985.72P.IANO llafargue@charter.net ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
