I need to brighten the tone on a set of grand hammers that have been 
treated with fabric softener.  I would appreciate any suggestions. 
Also any comments on this particular practice,  positive and/or 
negative.

You didn't say what kind of hammers these were, but after a stiff 
does of Downy, little matter. Treat them as you would raw NY Steinway 
hammers, reconstituting the tone by reinforcing. Shoulders first, 
then the crown as needed. Yes, reinforcer can attach to slimed fibers.
