  • 1.  Swabing Steinway D tuning pin hole

    Never swabed a tuning pin hole. Remove pin and then what? I'm using Loctite CA glue but have always applied around existing pin. 
        Best way to apply ?

    I've used both cotton swabs and cheap artists paint brushes.  Have to change them often, but there were no other issues.

    Last time I did it I used a pipe cleaner.
