Polishing Nitro

 Share

Recommended Posts

I have an old Jazz. I lent it to a student. It now seems to have a tough to shift layer of grime on it and the neck, which was down to bare wood many years ago feels dry :) What do I use to clean it? The paint is nitro and is trashed beyond, but I could really do without the grime aspect. I have tried Dunlop 65 guitar polish because I had some lying around but it does not seem to have done the trick.

I am aware that lending it out was risky at best :huh:

TIA

[url="http://www.fender.com/products//search.php?partno=0990512000"]Fender 'Color Restorer' polish[/url] is what you want for the body... I've had great results on old basses. But not sure what do recommend for areas of bare wood - probably best to look at the other Fender Meguiars products - they do a complete guitar care kit that is excellent.

Save yourself a load of money and find a place that sells Meguiars products for cars, they make it for Fender put it in a little bottle and Fender sell it for a lot of money. I got mine at a local "pimp your car" place near to me. :brow:
