paddy109 Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 I've just put a set of used D'addarios nickel wound back on a bass. Only a few months old and they have a sticky feel to them and they don't look as bright. Is there a way of cleaning them up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Alcohol wipes will do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paddy109 Posted May 5 Author Share Posted May 5 Thank you. I was hoping this was the case but didn't want to make things worse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 I don't think it will make any different to how they look but if there's any gunk on them that should be cleaned off pretty easily. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Bay Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 A splash of mouthwash on a rag also works well as a gentle (and paint friendly) cleaner if you don’t happen to have alcohol wipes. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
