What Do You Use to Wipe Your Guitar?

[John429]

I also use the microfiber cloth (bought at Guitar Center) to regularly wipe the guitar down after use. Periodically, there will be an oil residue from hands and fingers that the microfiber cloth just moves around instead of removing. At that time, I will lightly dribble a just a little bit of soapy water onto a moist cloth (I run some warm water over a bar of Ivory bar soap onto the cloth) and go over the whole body, little parts at a time. I immediately use a second cloth moist with water only to wipe off the slightly soapy water and follow up with a flannel cloth to dry. This does a nice job of removing the skin oils. Once a year I will use the Turtle Wax Express on the guitar.

I use some disposable lint free microfiber wipes that we use at work for cleaning delicate electronic equipment. For a "thorough" cleaning I use two cloths, one to wash with water and just a drip of liquid hand soap, and one to dry and buff.

I don't gig or anything, so I don't get sweat all over, but I do like to wipe down the strings and get rid of fingerprints after practice.
Right now I use a microfiber cloth that I got at The Podium.

I use turtle wax spray and an old t-shirt. Works like a champ. Although I hope using the spray once every couple of weeks is ok. Anyone heard otherwise?

For just cleaning and not polishing, I use one drop of detergent to one quart of water in a spray bottle. For cleaning rags I use cotton baby diapers; (yes the old fashioned kind) that has been washed a couple of times to make them real soft. I don’t spray the guitar, but put a slight mist on the rag and wipe it down. Never a scratch and gets the crud off.

I just user a damp cloth for smudges etc. For everyday, I use a microfiber cloth. On occasion I use s100 wax (sold at Harley Davidson stores). It's a real wax, with carnauba and no abrasives. It doesn't really smell so it doesn't compete with the wonderful smell of cedar. Oops, didn't mean to let that out! I'm not really a sound hole sniffer. I promise!

Old cloth baby diapers from a friend - her son is now in his twenties, so they last a long time, and with all the washings, they get softer and softer!

I use a microfiber cloth and Stew Mac's Preservation Polish.

I use Wndex and a cotton towel.
