Who Is It For?
This Ernie Ball cleaning kit is ideal for guitarists, bassists and other musicians who want a quick and convenient way to maintain their instrument’s appearance.
It is particularly useful for removing fingerprints and light surface marks after playing, helping instruments remain clean for use at home, in the studio or on stage.
Why Choose the Ernie Ball Instrument Polish?
Ernie Ball’s proprietary formula is designed specifically for instrument care. Unlike some general-purpose cleaning products, it is oil free and is formulated to wipe away cleanly without leaving a chalky or powdery residue.
The included microfibre cloth provides a soft cleaning surface, while its stitched edging improves durability during regular use. The cloth is also washable, allowing it to be reused as part of your ongoing instrument maintenance routine.

How to Use
Spray a small amount of polish directly onto the microfibre cloth rather than onto the instrument. Gently wipe the surface using a circular motion, then continue buffing with a clean section of the cloth until the surface is clear and streak free.
Always follow the instrument manufacturer’s cleaning guidance and test the product on a small, inconspicuous area when treating an unfamiliar or particularly delicate finish.

Comparison and Alternatives
Compared with using a dry cloth alone, the Ernie Ball Instrument Polish can provide more effective removal of fingerprints, smudges and light surface grime while restoring a clean shine.
Players looking to clean unfinished fingerboards should use a dedicated fretboard cleaning or conditioning product instead, as this polish is intended primarily for finished instrument surfaces.
