This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Thumper, I just finished a set of sharps on a Chickering Upright. They were = Ebony, but weren't very uniform. Once I stipped off the, several, coats = of "paint", I cleaned with 3M pad and Lacquer Thinner. Then sanded with = 400 w/d paper, (tops/fronts/sides). Then I stained them with Black = stain. Once the stain had done it's job, I finished with 2 coats of Tong = Oil. They looked marvelous, IMO. The time it took was a lot, but the end = result was great and the client was very happy. (The direction I got = from the client, was to "put the keys back the way they were new".) = Generally, the higher grade pianos of yore, used very good Ebony and = it's well worth the effort to preserve them, if possible. Saves some = smuck cutting down another S.A. Rain Forest Tree! Regards, Joe Garrett, R.P.T.
