Key Black

[Avery Todd]

Greg,

I looked it up today and you're correct. But in case anyone doesn't have
access to a woodworking center, here's the information from the Pianotec
flyer.

TransTint
#BD-6023
$9.95 (2 FL. OZ.)

The flyer even has directions on how to use it for ebony sharps and the
sides of the keys.
