Subj: Finish on keys
Date: Mon, 9 Oct 1995 17:11:18 -0400

I have a 4-year-old Buffet Bb professional level instrument.
The plating on the many of the keys is worn-off. My repairman
says that I, like many people, must have a high level of acid
in the oils on my fingers. What has been the experience of
the group with this phenomenon? With what material should I
re-plate? Can I get stainless steel keys?

Thanks for any advice you may have,
