<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Just refurbished this Pleyel 3 bis action with nose
type hammer shanks refurbished by Abel (nice job). Doing first pass rough
regulation, everything goes fine. At this point, the action already feels
good and is very quiet, as quiet as you expect a refurbished action to
be.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Then I put teflon powder on the noses, which I do
routinely in order to lower the friction at this point.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The action started squeeking as loud as a pig going
through it's last gasp. Now I'm scratching my head. This never
happened before.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any idea about what could have happened ? Is
there something like a pot life for teflon ? (I doubt).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Best regards.</FONT></DIV>
