On pianos he regularly services he claims he finds no adverse affects from its use- even the Steinways. I have never used it based on my experience with it in the machine shop. I caught some reaction by list members when an earlier post mentioned its use. I take it the stuff and pianos don"t mix. Has this ground been covered on the list before? >> I would hate to see what gunk would be around the flange clothe with WD40, and also in later years. IMHO, WD40 is only good on pianos for lubing the castors to reduce any squeeky noise. Dave Peake, RPT Portland, OR
