My budding rock and roll star son (lead guitarist in Blatant Disarray, www.blatantdisarray.com for you metal heads) just rec`d his new Tacoma Acoustic(Mahogany body) yesterday courtesy of a loan from good `ol dad,lol. This will be for his melodic compositions, complimenting the noise compositions,lol.



Here is a quote from the care sheet that came with it," For gloss finishes, use a quality non abrasive carnuba wax (such as Pinnacle Souveran). To rub out minor scratches, use 3M Finnese It or Meguiars Mirror Glaze #9 2.0 swirl remover."



Kinda blew us away. It seems my $450 of Autopian recommended supplies are going to serve many other fine quality purposes. BTW, we already use Klasse and P21S for his other 6 electric guitars and have used Meg #9 2.0 for scratches on those with great results.



My knowledge base acquired from youse over the past 18 mos. is immesurable, thnx

Very cool - I thought I may have been crazy for using Zaino on my Fender Strat!! :)

You are not going to believe this, but I was going to ask if anyone would consider using Klasse on a guitar....unbelievable!! I want to use it on my Steve Vai JEM model....



How does Z look on the Strat Steve??:xyxthumbs

Hey there 99......



I live right outside of Clayton, NC and in my high school days played bass in the same type of band. We played at many of the same places your son`s band plays at according to their website.



Nice to see a fellow Autopian so close by.

WOW!!!:shocked

I was afraid to admit I polish/P21s my guitars!!:D I have an all-black Fender acoustic/electric with excellent paint, and I drool at it with P21s on it!!!:p



Also, I have a transparent cherry Gibson Les Paul that sees only Meguiars #7, lol:D



Glad to see I`m not the only crazy one!

I guess I`ll have to try P21S on my Martin HD-28. It had never occured to me...since it`s too cold to wax the Passat I guess I can wax my guitar!



:cool:

Clean cars and clean guitars..what a combination!



We have so many musicians here, we could form the Autopia All Star Rock`n Roll Orchestra! :xyxthumbs



I put my self through college playing bass guitar in a rock band and touring with a production company doing "Godspell". I still have a 1970`s vintage Gibson B-25 acoustic guitar.



I wonder what a little 303 would do for the vinyl covering on a Marshall stack?:xyxthumbs

I use microfiber for my instruments all the time, but I never thought of using my Zaino - Great idea!

I can`t wait to try that on my 1978 Gibson SG. I have always been afraid to try car products on the surface but you guys have talked my into it



If I can`t play it, I can at least shine it!



Thanks
