Have you ever had a half way = decent old piano that you wanted to put a little polish on? You know, = make it look good for a potential buyer. Some of this is easy. Touch = up the case, vacuum it real good, clean the sound board, clean up the = keys. Maybe the piano sounds and plays nice after some hammer reshaping = and regulation, but AUGH!! Those dirty bass strings look horrible! You = will never get a decent price out of this thing no matter how good it = sounds and plays. No fear... Today I tried something different. I used a Dremel tool with a wire = brush, (one of those little round ones). I put the machine on a slow = speed and headed for the bass strings. With little effort the old = copper glowed like new again! I'm not kidding, like a new set of bass = strings! Of course you can't get to the bottom side very easily and the = procedure won't cure a set of dead strings, but as for cosmetic = enhancement this is the ticket!
