What are you doing with your National Raw Steel finish?

Hi,

I have a 12 fret cutaway Raw steel with the basket sound holes. Enjoying the heck out of this guitar. But I'm curious what folks are doing for the finish. Are you just letting it go with just a bit of a wipe down (not to get everything off) or are you being a little more aggressive in your clean up? I'm getting some pretty strong patina as it's been a warm summer particularly on the body where my picking hand falls. I think I'm OK with that as you can always give it a more vigorous clean and then a fresh coat of beeswax if you don't like the direction it's going per the National instructions.

Just curious to hear your thoughts.

Jeff
