I went to tune for a customer and they commented about their action not being the same sine they moved from British Columbia to Upstate New York. When I pressed down on the sustain pedal, the hammers would only hit the string once and then not repeat. I think I need to loosen up fome friction points, and if you can think of where this might happen, let me know. I have to take out the action. IT was a Baldwin console upright. Nice piano tune. Some fellow technicians said that you can use Methanol to loosen up the action friction and this has worked well for them. Do you know where you can purchase Methanol? Any ideas, suggestions would be appreciated!!! Doug Renz Associate PTG Rochester, NY pianotuner@frontiernet.net (585) 227-5793
