List; Ken Jankuras story caused me to ask the list. Is silica gel of any use outside of a sealed or environment? The only benefit I am aware of is for shipping or storage purposes, such as when a piano is new and 3 or 4 bags are placed inside - the instrument must be totally sealed with a plastic bag or wrapping. While I was working in Washington D.C., almost all of the Asian owned pianos that I serviced, had bags of silica inside. Here in Okinawa I regularly see silica used, not dampchaser. Your comments?
