Alexander Dean: Smells nice like linseed or sesame oil. Leaves a brilliant finish and makes the fingerboard smooth for efficient playing. Restores original varnish. Removes gunk (especially when using it on fretted instruments where dirt builds up next to frets). Removes damage from other products. Overall, great product.

Alex: It really worked well. I hadn't cleaned my violin for about 5 years so there was a good amount of rosin that had accumulated. The only question I have about it was if it is safe to use on the fingerboard? There is also rosin on there but I'm worried if the varnish would damage it.

K. Bennett: This stuff is great. My fiddle was looking dingy and ugly after a couple of years of heavy use. I play outdoors in the summer, and it's humid and I sweat, etc. (The fiddle is over 100 years old, so there is that too.) A little tiny bit dabbed on a soft cloth and gently rubbed does the trick. Work in very small sections, a couple of square inches at a time. Then buff the whole thing with a clean soft cloth.
Next time I will do this when I change strings, to make it easier to do. Just have to make sure the sound post doesn't get knocked down while I'm handling it :)

CrazyViolinist: Five stars. Really excellent cleaner and completely safe for varnished instruments.
This came badly packaged by Amazon -a little glass bottle just rolling around in an egregiously oversized box with no protective packaging inside-but it was not damaged. I won’t deduct a star because this wasn’t the Hill company’s fault-it was a Prime box.
This polish worked like a charm on my violin! My violin wasn’t horribly dirty or anything, but for everyday cleaning it is great. I used a soft rag to clean it. I have also used it on a couple of my students’ instruments that really needed a polishing and it perfectly did the trick.
It does not leave the instrument shiny, but it does do a nice deep cleaning and you can tell a big difference when you’re done. I also like the smell of it very much-not very strong, woody with a kind of faintly floral after-scent.
