I just had the same issue with a 1930's Baldwin grand. The keys bounce after you let go and you can feel it in your fingers when playing. Nothing worked, including backrail cloth and it did have a ton of lead in the keys. Someone in my Chapter suggested the wip cushions may be too hard, and they were. I turned the stack over and steamed them and it removed the dimples and softened them up. It did help noticeably but the problem is still there.
