Hi, Joel, Thanks for the input on Krud Kutter. I haven't had a problem with it yet, but I normally use it sparingly and work quickly. I will be careful with it. You have also informed me of additional uses of this product. Thanks. I'll experiment with it some more. Good to hear from you, old friend. Be well, Claude Harding _____ From: pianotech-bounces at ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces at ptg.org] On Behalf Of joel a. jones Sent: Friday, November 07, 2008 2:20 PM To: pianotech at ptg.org Subject: Re: [pianotech] Cleaning Soundboard and Plate Claude, Krud Kutter is in my cleaning bucket too, but I find I must use it sparingly. It removes dirt on plates and soundboards immediately . If it sets too long I find it hard to match the different areas as it can remove stain, paint, as well as Krud. One of our techs uses it to strip old pianos. Spray it on, wait a bit, wipe it off. Leaves a nice stain and smooth surface. Keep in Tune.

It's made by a company in Georgia and available in Home Depot & Lowe's in this area (TX), as well as many grocery stores. It claims to be "Tough on krud; gentle on nature." (www.krudkutter.com) No personal guarantees, but it has worked well for me.

I will be cleaning the plate and SB without restringing and was considering cleaning solutions. Diluted Simple Green is what I am thinking of using. Your suggestions would be most appreciated.
