We have taken in a 1976 Kimball console which has a bad odor. We think =
the former owners were smokers big time. There's no evidence of mice. =
When scrubbing down the cabinet a white rag would turn brown with just a =
few swipes. We have washed the cabinet, soundboard and  back posts as =
good as possible. I have used steel wool on the keys sticks and keybed.

The smell was still there so we hauled the piano to Americlean and had =
them put it in their ozone chamber. At first the smell was more pleasant =
but now it stinks again. We bought some deodorant gadgets to hang inside =
which didn't smell all that great either. One day we put it out in =
sunshine with action exposed to the sun.=20

In fact, I can smell the dang thing as I type this message.=20

Help!! Help!! Anyone have any other suggestions? Actually this Kimball =
stinks in more ways than one if you know what I mean.=20
