Hi--
I have noticed people mentioning in passing "chip repair". How is this done?
There is an ad in the latest Journal for a chip repair kit--is that on the
level? Here's what I've got. (Again the I&P) 83 beautiful, perfect keys,
shiny, smooth, black sharps and smooth, unstained white keys. 5 white
keytops have small chips out of their top font edge. Is there a way to fix
these? These keys are 110 years old and when clean, except for the thin
black line of embedded dirt at the join line, they are gorgeous. I want
desperately to fix the five keys. (BTW, anyone have any advice about
disappearing the black line between the keytop front and back?)
