Haven't found myself in the particular scenario you describe, but have used V S Profelt on somewhat worn key bushings, after a light steaming (and, in some cases, needling of compacted area a la Steve Brady's method), and followed by cauls of appropriate size overnight. Overkill? maybe, but effective.

I serviced a piano yesterday that had recently rebushed keys and the cauls used were too big. No wear at all on the cloth and all were consistantly loose both front and center . I don't have the action in the shop yet and I will experiment tonight on some old keys ,but would also appreciate any feedback from your collective experience. It would be nice to not have to rebush . Thanks, Tom D. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
