I went by Lowe's (I was in the neighborhood) and looked for Elmer's Slide-all, but they didn't carry it. However, they did carry "Super Lube" (See www.super-lube.com) that is labeled as "multi-purpose synthetic lubricant with Syncolon (PTFE)" So, syncolon is their trade name for teflon. Anyway, the back of the label says it is approved for use in federally inspected meat and poultry plants, and is safe on toys, doesn't contain petroleum oils. So, I think this is probably going to be safe on a piano. If anyone has any information contrary to that, I'd appreciate it. Otherwise, I guess this topic is closed.
