The cleaner also contains a preservative oil which is excellent for ebony and rosewood finger boards as well exotic woods. It helps to blend in minor gouges and scratches with the original finish.

The four oz. bottle of Kolstein polish will restore the full natural lustre of the finest finishes acted upon by time and usage. Along with the pair of Kolstein polishing cloths included in the kit, the polish will keep the instrument clean and retard build-up of dirt and rosin.
