Re: [disklavier] Re: Products for Cleaning Ebony Disklavier?

One of my pianos has a satin finish. I tried the Cory polish for satin, and it looked worse! I called the company, they gave me credit for the polish and sent me a different product that worked quite well. I also use their high-gloss polish, works fine for my disklavier with high gloss. They also sell a polish specifically for the keys. The company is quite good, knows different finishes and different types of wood used in pianos. I trust their opinions and products.

Perhaps Windex works, I would not use it, YMMV.
