Well, I so much agree with that.  I remember the first time I tried it, 
about 25 years ago, on a decent birdcage action upright that friends had 
aquired.  I was amazed at the difference it made. 

I think it is a very useful part of the armamentarium of the 
tuner/technician in the home.  It can make such a big difference.  In a very 
fine quality piano of course one would pay close attention to carefully 
re-regulating the action afterwards.  But even on mediocre older uprights 
where the owner doesn't want to spend much, there is a great gain to be had 
for relatively little expenditure of time. 

David.
