Dunlop Maintenance Kit

literally does come with everything you need to keep your guitar in brand new looking shape! the body polish and wax is great! you can really see the difference after cleaning, whilst it doesn't seem to protect against hand grease for 30 days, it really does bring out that out-of the-box look and you can feel the layer of protection for a good number of days afterwards. String cleaner also works wonders. As i haven't changed the strings on my guitar since i got the kit i can't comment on the fret and fret board cleaner, but if the rest of the kit is anything to go by, im sure they're great too. every bottle comes with its own specific easy to understand instructions, so there's really no messing it up lol. comes with a couple of cloths, which could be a little on the softer side, but they do they do the job well enough. I have 2 guitars at the moment, and clean them both once a week, the bottles do really seem to last. I do have to admit, im so happy with this kit im actually considering buying another one just so i know my guitars will be in the "so fresh and clean" state even longer! my advice - grab one of these! you should always have one of these kits in the cupboard!

It's a great kit with excellent products by Dunlop.

I never used dedicated cleaning products on my instruments and one day I decided to give it a try and bought this kit.

- Formula 65 polish & cleaning fluid:

It's a good cleaning product. Removes the grease and keeps your guitar finish on point!

- Formula 65 Carnauba wax:

With this, I had some doubt on how to apply it. I don't know if I still don't do it the RIGHT way, but although it's a good protective wax, it doesn't keep the finish protected against "finger grease" and all other dirt for 30 days (as the manual states)

- Formula 65 string cleaner & conditioner:

This is great! I sweat a lot, and my sweat is very corrosive so the strings on my guitar don't last more than a month. I was forced to use Elixir coated strings, and although they are great, I still prefer the sound of Ernie Ball and D'Addario Strings. With this formula, I can use the strings I want, and keep them slippery and fresh for longer periods of time!

- 01 finger board cleaning fluid:

I use it on my telecaster's rosewood fretboard and it's awesome. It removes the dirt almost effortlessly.

- 02 finger board conditioner:

I apply this every 2/3 changes of strings, and keeps my fretboard clean and hydrated. It prevents the dirt from sticking to the wood, as well as being absorbed by it.

- Cleaning cloths:

Meh, not so good. They get teared apart very easily.
I would advise to get some microfibre cloths on the side.


All in all, a great product and great value for the whole kit.
