We've now tried it dozens of times for centers and we DON'T recommend it for centers. Not only does it NOT tighten, in some cases it made them looser. Surprizingly, we use it to voice hammers. A small drop in the groove does it. Experiment with it and you'll see. Works great on key bushings too. Here's a trick to get a "small" drop; using a small needled bottle, point the needle down and let 5 or so "sacrificial" drops leak out on a rag, etc. Now, keep the bottle pointing downward and you'll see that the fluid is held up by the vacuum created. A very tiny drop will now flow, until after a while the suction is too great and you need to tip and start again, or just squeeeze out the size drop you need. It's very easy, fast really.
