I want to echo Bill's comment. If this is a new piano still under warrantee, I would have the customer call the store and complain about the problem. Sooner or later the keyslip will have to be removed. It might as well be done now, even if you have to break the darn thing to get it off the piano. If it is a new piano still under warrantee, hopefully you can get a new key slip from the factory.

The problem: The keyslip is rubbing against the keyfronts of the naturals. What I have attempted: Tapping the balance rail pins toward the back, which gained me a little clearance, but not enough. I am not so joyously awaiting the summer humidity. Any suggestions? (that don't involve a sledge hammer)?
