I'm no expert (and I didn't play one on TV either) but I have a Knabe
Autopiano 88-note player in which I recovered the roll motor and
tracking pneumatics with yellow Polylon, using hot hide glue, and it
worked perfectly.  I recovered those pneumatics in 1996, and the glue
still holds well.  For the record, I know that "they" say that the
hot hide glue will not stick to Polylon, but has anyone else tried it?
It worked for me!
