| Cheers all,
(initially posted in the Welcome forum)
Can anyone recommend a non-abrasive cleaner I can use on my somewhat tarnished tuners, keys. I also would like to clean up and polish the tailpiece and bridge. They're not bad really, but could use cleaning. The tuner keys are perhaps the dirtiest. Thanks for any assistance.
I look forward to your input, and since posting this I was able to find some info online that may be of help for all.

Hah, I now recall watching my mom polishing silverware with toothpaste. Thanks for that and for the welcome Jonmark.
