My GCIII was recovered/releveled in May 2005. No problems at all until just recently. One of the slates has popped. Not too suprising as the table sits on a floating slab basement floor. What is a little unusual, at least to me is this. The extent of the popped slate is only about 15 inches. It starts about 4 inches from the rail. It is the foot end slate that is high. The mechanic who did the table in 05 used wax on the seams. Should I insist on him using "liquid Dowels" or bondo next time? A different mechanic suggested that it may be just the wax that has popped up in that section. He says it may be corrected with some heat from a hair dryer and a rolling pin. I'm thinking that it would melt and stain the cloth and to fix it right you need to remove the cloth and reshim and fill the seams. BTW, the cloth is not in need of replacement.
