Roger, Possibly I missed this but any particular hairspray brand that has the right amount of solids etc. David Ilvedson, RPT Pacifica, California Original message From: "Roger Jolly" To: "Pianotech List" Received: 4/5/2006 6:45:45 PM Subject: Re: hairspray hammer hardner question Hi Julie, The sand paper is only used if you apply too much spray. The nice thing about this method , is that there is a small amount of material and will not soak into the hammer very far. It's dry in a few minutes. Use a very light grade of sand paper about 400 grit, if needed. I am assuming the hammers have been pre filed to obtain some extra brightness.

Mask off the surrounding hammers, Spay the crown with a light coat of hair spray, should bring back the sparkle. Easy to reverse, by lightly sanding, very controlled. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
