Acoustics can have both nitro and poly finishes, and to help work out which one yours is, a good indicator is the price. Generally speaking, cheaper acoustic guitars will be poly finishes as they take less time to do, and therefore can be sold cheaper. Guitars from the £1000 and upwards bracket will generally have nitro finishes as the hours have been put into getting that finish.
James recommends using Martin's acoustic pump polish, as shown below. This is a slightly thinner and easier to spread polish than the previous pump polishes we have used, which massively helps when cleaning acoustics. It also contains no silicon which can damage the finish, and so is important to avoid.

Help! I have a 25 year old Takamine guitar with a cedar top and I think a satin finish. I haven’t cleaned it for about 20 years and the top has a thick layer of smudge. What is the best way to clean off the smudge and restore the finish?

What about a matt body?

Here is a good question I want to ask there are so many videos on how to clean the outside of your acoustic guitar but what about the inside of the guitar that collects the most dust

Exactly

If there’s simply dust, use a “duster”, use some compressed air; preferably light air pressure and not the chemical kind, then use a duster to collect the dust. Of course it’s not actually necessary.
