steinway over hardened hammer

[Horace Greeley]

Hi, Richard,

A little more information, please:

What kind of hardener did you use, what did you use as a carrier (thinner), 
what was the approximate strength of the solution, etc.?

There are a number of approaches, most of which will depend on this kind of 
detail.

Thanks.

Horace
