Did Bob really say soak it? At CERS last fall he told me someone had used a small amount to help seat a damper. Maybe it depends on what the trouble is and/or the condition of the damper felt.

Hey Now, A few weeks back I posted the question about VS Profelt on damper felt. I got one or two responses from people who have tried it I think. the only thing I remember is I was assured they would not explode!!! Well I posed the question to Bob at Pianotek and he said they has received great reviews for using the VS Profelt for that purpose. He said to soak the damper felt right in the piano and use the strings as a caul to reform the felt. Let it dry over night. Well I just thought I'd throw it out there as a follow up. I have not tried it yet. Steve Blasyak Orange County Chapter Pura Vida the dude abides -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
