Any opportunity to reduce the risk of string breakage is alright with me. Since I don't want any of it to contaminate other parts of the piano I don't actually spray it, but have instead been using a cotton swap to apply it. I'm writing today because there just has to be a better way. Especially when you want to get some onto those contact points behind the pressure bar on a small upright. Any suggestions?</SPAN></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=859291802-06042006></SPAN></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=859291802-06042006>-- Geoff Sykes</SPAN></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=859291802-06042006>-- Assoc.
