Scratched Yamaha CFIII Plate

[Terry Beckingham]

Thanks for your suggestion Jack. As I live in a small town, I doubt that I 
can find the Decorator's Gilt here. I do hope to go to the city before I 
see the piano again. I'll look for it at that time.

The marks are only about 1/4" by 1/32" in an arc, but they are on the 
treble side of the struts, so they show when the lid is open. My customer 
will be happy if I can just brush a little paint into the scratches with a 
small brush.

Thanks

Terry Beckingham
