[CAUT] Cleaning solution

   Actually, we did that back in the 80's at Oberlin, before Robert Murphy ever got there. We used cheese cloth, and hardly added any of the Murphy's Oil Soap to the water. one step. Part of the summer piano cleaning regimen for the student help.

Seems to work for Oberlin.  Although I think all their Steinways are satin.  I haven't tried it.

They do have one or two Hamburgs.  I can ask Robert how they treat them.  Maybe just a damp cloth followed by a dry one.  That's what I would do on a high gloss.

Oh Oh, I've heard that ammonia will cloud hi-gloss finishes, the same with Windex.  Don't know if this is reliable info or not......
