Wim, I tried steaming on two M and H model A's, but I steamed to the point I thought I would damage something and got very little results. I know I should just replace the hammers this summer and perhaps I will. Right now, I need the immediate results. The softener worked albeit with plenty put on. How much steam would be too much? I haven't had any felt come off the moudlings yet. Maybe this is why they call them practice rooms! I'll try a bit more steaming down the hall!
