I have an older violin (over 100 years Smile that is starting to look a bit dull in the wood and I was wondering what I can use to polish the body and the fingerboard up?

Working at a guitar shop, I use guitar polish on the guitars there and they do great on them, but I know the finish is different on a guitar.

I was wondering what the best way to shine up my violin (and the bow for that matter Smile

Thanks!

PS. First post!!

I use Guardsman Cleaner & Polish Cream (no oils or silicone). My luthier introduced me to it and it works great on older instruments, just be sure none gets on the strings.
