The spray on Teflon works very well. (TFL50) The can comes wit=
h an
extension hose, makes it very easy and fast, to reach the damper springs, =
and
damper spoons. <BR><BR>Regards Roger <BR><BR><BR><BR><BR></FONT>

They
seem to develop squeaky damper lever springs, spoon-felt interface, and
pedals after awhile? I've begun using teflon powder on all contact=
points. A hobby brush works well to get it in the groove (is this =
also
called a grub??) and on the springs, and I've taken to using the tapered=
end
of a felt mute to get between the spoon and the end of the lever so I ca=
n
apply it to the felt. <BR> <BR>The other day I had a
"click" when the sustain was depressed that it took me awhile to figure
out. Turns out, the action bracket wasn't wedged tightly enough in=
to
the nose-bolt, and was moving when the damper assembly was hoisted by th=
e
pedal. <BR> <BR>Ya never know....<BR> <BR>Dave
