Removing Mould

[gordon stelter]

Yes, I am quite certain that a hospital would love to
let you put a filthy old piano action in an autoclave!
( Not.) 
     As for my method of cleaning obsolete / filthy
action parts ... IT WORKS !!! ( Try it before you
knock it, ye olde mockinge cumudgeonly coots! )
     Because of it, my meticulously restored upright
player pianos have fetched upwards of $20,000, from
people who would not dream of putting a musty old
piano in their mansions!
