Location: Canada | What's a good brand for guitar polish? I'm looking at two types in particular. One for my accoustics (Celebrity, Elite, Balladeer)for simple polishing and protecting. And one for my electrics.
Now for my electrics, I'm looking at something which will really remove scratches and dings. Maybe something heavy to the point of a polish which actually rubs on a layer of finish or a simple finish solution which is applied easily without the hassle of heavy spraying. Any good suggestions anyone? |

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | I used pledge for years before I found out.. :( I think Jim should check out alternate markets for #65. It makes a GREAT furnature polish and the Army, Navy, Marines and Air Force would buy it buy the TON if they realized how great it was on "Corfam." |

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | Depends oh your definition of "scratch." Most "scratches" are mild surface scratches from maybe the pick, or stringing... they are at the very top layer and really just about any polish will clear these. It's not rubbing compound. Just a nice, use after every play, make it look nice on stage, doesn't leave a residue, polish. |

Location: 6 String Ranch | Dunlop does a great job but doesn't remove all the scratches from where you put your feet on the coffee table. He doesn't repile the magasines in the right order either but he's great to have around, life of the party! |

I think you are getting dunlop mixed up with carbona. That is the life of the party. |
