What can I use to clean my tremolo


I have always wondered on what I can use to clean tremolo's, which in this case is an Edge Pro (Cosmo) from my 1570.

Is there some kind of spray I can use to clean and make it shine?

Windex and an old toothbrush. Anything abrasive will take the cosmo coating off so be gentle.

And the toothbrush will scratch the cosmo, only use it in the nooks and crannies of the saddles.

Re: What can I use to clean my tremolo


I bought one of those air dusters used for cleaning keyboards etc today.

Recon this is safe to use on trems etc? It can be used to clean cameras and other sensitive equipment so I don't see why not...

Compressed air is what I use to spray dust out of hard to reach parts of my guitar and it hasn't ruined anything yet. Plus you don't have to take your strings off to use it! Huge plus.
