No. Waste of time. You have to replace them.

Subject: [pianotech] hammer flange verdigris
Hello list:
I am rebushing a set of Steinway hammer flanges that have significant green / black verdigris. Hammers had 1/2 to two swings on the typical swing test. My question is about the flange / birdseye. Is there a good way to flush the birdseye to get the verdigris out, and what solution would one use ??
Thanks..... I'll contingue my bushing and wait for a reply.
