Thank You so much. I care so much for my piano, but also not anxious to let anyone work on it unless they truly know what they're are doing!!! Your videos have been SO helpful.

Hi and thank you. Just to clarify, you can use Murphy oil for cleaning on a satin finish? I just inherited a beautiful satin finish Steinway and sons baby grand that needs a good cleaning. The soundboard it’s pretty dusty any suggestions for that?

If it's a hand rubbed satin I'd first use a soft damp rag and wipe in the direction of the rubbing marks. Then if there are any trouble areas use the Murphy's heavily diluted. A few drops in a standard spray bottle filled with water should do it. They make a soundboard duster that you can slide under the strings to dust it but you can also push a small rag under there and use something like a wooden dowel to push it along between the strings, just be careful not to scratch it.

Thanks for all the advice. I just got a Bush and Lane baby grand made in 1924. I want to spruce up the finish.a bit and it seems pretty shiny like a gloss. But my question is, being so old would it be a ploy finish? And would English do the trick?

It’s most likely a shellac finish. You could start by cleaning it with the Murphy’s, that might help. The Old English will mostly just fill small scratches but I’ve never had either of these products damage a shellac finish.

Thanks for the reply. I started on the bench today with Murphy’s and with a few applications took off all of the old wax. The Old English brought out some nice highlights in the wood and covered some scuff marks. Tried the same on places on the piano. Sure looks better already. Thanks.

Hello sir, Thank you so much for giving valuable tips. I have a one question. Is there anything we can do if strings gets rusted and what to do if black spots comes on the copper string? Thank you so much again 🙏

Hello! On the rusty steel strings you can use something called polita steel. Its basically a hard steel-impregnated eraser. I get mine from Schaff but there are other suppliers out there. If the rust is really bad you may need to replace them but try this first, you'll simply just rub it onto the strings using it like an eraser. On the bass copper-wound strings they'll discolor where anyone touches them, like a penny. You can try using a standard rubber eraser on them, that typically works for me.
