The Complete Clean & Hydrate
Industrial silicones and cheap petroleum oils suffocate raw tonewoods and degrade vintage finishes. The Complete Clean & Hydrate (£65) is a restorative bench spa for tired, gig-worn guitars, utilizing 100% plant-based, non-toxic formulations that lift sweat and oils while infusing essential lipids deep into dry fingerboard grain.
