I’ve been polishing with synthetic car wax five or so years now.
I was using Shine Armor but have switched to Turtle wax.

No. Can’t say I’ve ever done that. I wipe mine off sometimes. That’s about it.ISO - Fender Highway One Stratocaster - black

I wipe them down after I finish playing. I also clean & condition the fretboards and polish them when I change strings. I have been through a lot fretboard cleaner, conditioner and polish over the years. There is also Carnauba Bodygloss, basically Wax, in my kit, but I have never used it. The polish always seems to get the job done.I miss the 80's (girls) !!!

A couple times a year I hit the boards & necks with Burts Feed & Wax. Lately, I've been doing a light polish on the bodies with it, too.“I can play the hell out of a riff. The rest of it’s all bulls**t anyway,” Gary HoltComment

Bought some Fender guitar polish in 2000 with my first guitar. Used some last week. Seems to work still.http://www.youtube.com/alexiansoundsOriginally posted by crusty philtrumComment

I use Birchwood Casey gunstock wax on the neck of my Ernie Ball. Every year, there is a process of sanding the neck with 600 & 1000 grit paper, cleaning with Murphy's Oil soap, and using the wax. I wouldn't use any wax on hard finishes, though.Administrator of the SDUGFComment

If you posted some before and after pics I feel more of us would become inclined to do so...You will never understand How it feels to live your life With no meaning or control And with nowhere left to go You are amazed that they exist And they burn so bright

I use turtle wax once in a while on my guitars. every couple years. takes some of the surface scratches out and shines it up a bit, gives it a nice coating for a while tooComment

Actual wax can build up and cause the finish to develop a dull haze. It isn't a car.Administrator of the SDUGFComment
