Hill Peg Compound* W.E. Hill & Sons special paste formulation. A small amount helps ease sticking pegs. Original blend of graphite powder, petroleum jelly, china clay, talc, and re d iron oxide. Application: Once the tuning peg is removed from the scroll and cleaned, remove peg paste from tube, peel back foil as required. Apply the peg paste sparingly to the length of the tuning peg - a small amount goes a long way. Reinsert the pegs into the pegbox, tuning them gently as you push them in, to evenly distribute the peg paste inside the peg holes. Turn each peg slowly to ensure that they move smoothly without sticking. If necessary, you can adjust the amount of paste or wipe off any excess. *As of January 2024, the lipstick version will be phased out due to EU restriction on single use plastic container; the new sticks will be housed in a metal cylinder with a screw cap.
