How to clean a shiny, high-gloss black piano

What to use?

We recommend a can of Ambersil 31596-AA Glass Cleaner 400ml and a microfibre cloth.

Where to buy these magical products?

• Ambersil from these guys
• Microfibre cloths from those guys

How to use them?

• Spray the spray onto the cloth and then clean the piano with it.
• Don’t spray the spray directly onto the piano
• Stay away from the hinges just in case
• Disclaimer: ask your tuner before you do anything.

What about getting teeny tiny scratches out?

Standard advice is to use clear T-Cut rubbed on with lots of elbow grease (don’t be shy) and then finished off again with the Ambersil. Disclaimer: ask your tuner before you do anything.

What about massive dents?

Don’t panic. The right professional can work wonders without having to take your piano away. It will probably take 2 or 3 visits. Tell him/her not to forget their burnishing cream. And again, ask your tuner before you do anything.

Disclaimer

Did I mention you should always ask your tuner before you do anything to your piano? Just to be safe.
