What's been going on in the shop - next chapter
Hamer Dave replied to Northfield's topic in Shishkov Guitars
I'd be interested in a bass -
They all look incredibly great! Yet so different. The natural looks way better than I'd imagine.

Awesomeness! Congrats on scoring a gorgeous instrument.

I picked up the Zymol. Great for clean/newer guitars. Not so keen on it's performance on the old gunky guitars. Though it made it look better on an early 70's Gibson, it didn't look right, and I'm sure it didn't clean it so much as, kind of mask what was needed to be removed. If that makes any sense. Just didn't look right. Those old guitars look 'odd' with that kind of oily gloss for lack of a better term. There is coconut oil, or something in it. Have to look at the label again. I want to try the Virtuoso cleaner and see how that would work. dave

I hear ya Jay. Trying to take the easy way. I suppose it's inevitable. Always nice to break it down to buff, and clean it right.

sometimes. If the Lacquer has been subjected to less Lacquer freindly polishes, it will soften the lacquer, making it feel sticky, etc. see below \/ This is what happens when you buy a used guitar. what its past, is unknown. So, to get past the cloudiness, and fogginess from naphtha, switch over to a cleaner (like virtuoso, etc.?), and rub, rub, rub your ass off til it clears up? Is there not an easier way? Pleez, I hope there would be.
