Bending the posts should never be done. Misalignment of the screws will often cause binding. Teflon is surely a better way. To keep this from happening to your horns always have them serviced every 6 months to a year and ask the repairman what type of oil he/she uses. The heavier the better. I use gear oil of a few of the screws, but usually something like Lucas Heavy Duty oil is fantastic for most or all of your keys. In 15 years the keys still won't have any play in them.
