hamerhead Posted Wednesday at 04:10 PM Posted Wednesday at 04:10 PM I have a 60-year-old case (in somewhat delicate condition) with 50 years of dust on it. Any good - mild - Tolex-friendly cleaners out there? Thanks. Quote

G Man Posted Wednesday at 05:13 PM Posted Wednesday at 05:13 PM I'd try Simple Green on an inconspicuous part of the case and see if that works. 2 Quote
Jimbilly Posted Wednesday at 05:50 PM Posted Wednesday at 05:50 PM Windex or cheapo similar works great for cleaning low end guitars. I would try a gentle automotive vinyl/leather cleaner, I sometimes use Griots (gree ohs) Interior Detailer, it's not harsh and doesn't seem to leave any visible residue, but it does claim to have a UV protectant so it's leaving something on there. I had asked at the counter at Griots for what they would recommend as a gentle vinyl / tolex cleaner 1 Quote
Steve Haynie Posted yesterday at 12:16 AM Posted yesterday at 12:16 AM If you have real Tolex try some whitewall cleaner. It works great on old amplifiers. 1 Quote
DaveL Posted yesterday at 01:06 AM Posted yesterday at 01:06 AM car detailer (meguiars) or armour all wipes might work... black sharpie blended with your finger to touch up the nicks. goo gone on the sticker residue. naptha if you require high test... Fabreze and let it sit on your deck. but if it stinks I simply return it from where it came from. 1 Quote
