What do you use to clean your composite guitars?
Just curious.

Haha, funny or serious replies.....all good!
Mostly I just do a quick wipe down after playing with a dry microfiber cloth. On occasion and always at string change time, I clean the whole guitar using a spray bottle filled with water and white vinegar mix, and wipe with a microfiber cloth. It works very well.

Damp microfiber cloth mostly but when I get the chance I use some Alembic guitar polish.

Clean
I recently had to clean a spot of the Chimaera with some Dunlop guitar cleaner. Outside of that I normally just wipe off with a microfiber cloth. Fingerboards might be anther story, haven't got there yet. When the time comes I'll probably do the same unless someone else here has a better suggestion

Wonder what would happen if you used one of these on a Martin?

Since purchasing my first carbon fiber guitar many moons ago, I've used a microfiber cloth and Meguiars Mirror Glaze #34. (That first carbon fiber guitar was the long gone Rainsong AWS1000.)
