<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I just returned from the Mohawk 3 day workshop on
wood touch up and repair. My mind is full, no, overflowing with as yet
undigested information. Don't get me wrong, this is probably one of the
best short workshops I have taken, especially for lac finish repairs. It's
just that there are so many different materials and ways to repair each type of
problem, eg scratches, gouges, etc. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Would anyone who is using the Mohawk materials for
piano finish touchup email me privately so we can talk real time? I would
like to get a material order together in the next few days, and could use some
experienced guidance on what works well for piano touchup.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Also, re my previous Q on lacquer for S&S
hammers, Mohawk certainly can supply it. Just by the gallon,
unfortunately. Since they have an 85 dollar min order, also
investigate their epoxy sticks in several colors. This has been covered
before, but the stuff has gotta be great for screw hole repair, etc,
anything needing structural strength. Sets in a few minutes, and has
machinability, etc. I'm sure this is old info for many of you, but it was
new to me. and very valuable.</FONT></DIV>
