Paul, Jim and Jon, thank you for the additinoal comments on VS Profelt.

Clearly it doesn't do much for worn centres! 

What a very interesting suggested, though, about trying it in compacted 
hammer grooves for voicing.

  I've been using a hypo-oiler recently to apply Protek CLP to string 
underfelt on some older grands, and I find that quickly running my fine 
hypo-oiler along each string leaves a very fine line of CLP which 
quickly wicks in under the string.  I imagine that it might work 
similarly if carefully applied to hammer grooves with VS Profelt.

I'll have to get some VS Profelt to try it out!

Thanks again,

David.
