If you apply it to the key side of the pian= o, there's usually a little gap created by the string tension pulling the pi= n in the other direction.  I'm amazed sometimes at how much CA will go= down that little gap.  When I'm done, I just throw the straw away. The only negative is that the fumes REALLY come up at ya, probably much more= so than if you used a syringe.   </HTML>
