[pianotech] VS Profelt

[Joe And Penny Goss]

Hi Tom,
There was a  thread the other day about synthetic felt, I was wondering if
there might be a difference in the results.
With GJ I have noticed a different result with the newer low budget pianos
that have puffy felt.

cauls in  and let them dry overnight.  As far as how much to apply, I was
pretty liberal in dousing the old bushings.  I've had one set come out
nearly perfect.  The other set was improved.

extremely worn.  Same results.  It absolutely improved them all; some were
just too loose to begin with, I think.
