Wonder Wipes...

[Hendog]

Who uses them and witch ones do you use?

 

[DJ.]

Ernie Ball Wonder Wipes Instrument Polish
Ernie Ball Wonder Wipes Fretboard Conditioner
Ernie Ball Wonder Wipes String Cleaner

Also Ernie Ball Guitar Polish (Spray) and of course Ernie Ball Polish Cloth

Yes, I'm an Ernie Ball fanboy!

 

[Spudmurphy]

I use fretboard cleaner - I should use my stringwipes more often!!

I don't use polish at all on my guitars.

Do you guys just use the string cleaner on strings?

What do you actually CLEAN your guitar with. Polish just polishes it.

 

[DJ.]

Yes, string cleaner on the strings. The only other cleaner I use is Murphy Soft Wipes on the back of the neck and then I follow up with the polish. Never had a problem with anything else needing a cleaner.

One of the guys at Music Man told me to use the fretboard conditioner on the back of the neck. Is that a bad idea?

I use the fretboard conditioner on my necks. Never tried the others.

It's a great idea!

EDIT: provided we're just talking about your EBMMs, don't use it on finished necks.

If MM told you to do it I would not hesitate if that is what you want to do.

Not unless the back of the neck is painted. For oil finished, it's great.

I love da fretboard wipes for front and back. Don't use the others.

 

[bkrumme]

I use them all.

I don't really "clean" the guitar per se, just wipe away the oil/sweat and then polish away. I kinda use a 3-step system.

1. Wipe away the sweat/oil with a dry polish cloth
2. Wonder Wipes
3. Buff to shine

I use the fretboard conditioner on oil finished necks and rosewood necks. Use the same as above on painted necks.

String cleaner is cool, but I only really use it after shows when I get really sweaty.

Wait BK, so I should use my wonder wipes on my BFR Rosewood neck too? Not just the FB?

Oh yeah! Makes a HUGE difference Run one of those wipes over the back of your RW neck and let it dry for about 5 minutes without touching it. SMOOTH like a baby's butt!

 

[DaPatrooch]

I use the FB Conditioner for both the fb and the back of the neck. Works great. I use the Dunlop 65 polish for the body, but I'd like to try the Ernie Ball spray polish.

 

[Hendog]

OK, so I did the 3 step process.

1) String Cleaner
2) Guitar Polish
3) Fretboard Conditioner on entire neck/fretboard

I am not sure that I like the greasy feel. I am hoping this goes away after a few days.

FB conditioner for me! Cleans those necks up a treat!
