I agree and will add to first incorporate an initial water/alcohol treatment.
If it does not diminish the sluggishness, Protek will only mask it for a few
months. If the H2O/alc does not sufficiently relieve the symptoms, repin, 
size w/ H2O/alc, Protek.

Unless someone has evidence on further treating previously treated
pins with H2O/alc.
