I know bass guitar players who cook their string, not only for cleaning but also for sounding fresher. And it works very well! They put them in boiling water for a few minutes. Or in cold water with sparkling tablets usualy used for cleaning denture. I always wondered if that works for piano strings, too. Did anybody ever test this? I never head the heart to do dirty tricks like that. But it could be worth to experiment with that.
