Funriniture polish on satin finish

[David ilvedson]

Jerry, 

I had a Yamaha U1 with high polish that the hotel 
cleaning folk dutifully "polished" everyday with Guardsman 
Polish, provided by our local piano supply house.  I serviced it 
Quarterly and was noticing that the finish was cloudy and 
sticky.  Finally I talked with the management and found out 
about the polish...they quit using it, I came in and with many 
rags and paint thinner got the polish off.  A big job.  Paint 
thinner will not affect the finish and will get rid of the "oil 
slick".  If nervous try it out on an inconspicous spot...Then 
use Cory products...
