What do you use to keep high gloss speakers clean?

Auto detailer, both Meguiars and Mothers, seem to be common recommendations for keeping speakers looking their best...but realistically, its not like the stuff needs to be used every week...maybe 2x per year.

Light dusting with a Swifter once a week.  I don't use wax/polish or cleaners, as my speakers are kept indoors and are not exposed to the outside elements like a car.  Unless you have curious small children, finger prints should not be a problem, if so, a damp micro fiber cloth will do the trick once the dust is removed.

http://www.brillianize.com/Pages/LandingPages/acrylic.html. I’ve used this product for decades. Was introduced to it for my plexiglass aquarium. Have used it on motorcycles, cars, computers, to name a few. It’s the absolute best for non glass tv screens. Spray it on and rub with a clean cotton baby diaper or micro fiber cloth. Then flip the cloth over and polish with dry side. You will feel it get incredibly slippery. Simply rub with a clean micro cloth to remove dust and smudges. Works incredibly well on motorcycle windscreens and helmet face shields without scratching provided they’re not gritty to begin.

Totally agree about the brillianize!  Started using it years ago for my plexiglass cover over my turntable and eventually on all my high gloss items.  Love its ease and the outcome of its application.

The first step is definitely dry Swiffer.

It is the dust (grit) that causes the swirls when wiped.

Same, car wax. 

Fresh, cleaned, water dampened cotton washcloth, followed by a dry cotton towel. Nothing else needed. Been using this for decades without the need to add any "product" to the process.

Don’t dry dust ever. Dry dusting is what causes the micro scratches in the first place. If you never cause the micro scratches, you never have to add product to cover up, or polish out the micro scratches.

I second the McGuire's Quick Detail.

For wood I use  Z's Wood Nectar.

Damp microfiber cloth followed by a clean dry microfiber cloth.  No issues ever.

As reubent and stereo5 dutifully inscribe...

Swifter + I don’t touch them.

I've a pair of piano black KEF Blades in need of cleaning some fingerprints, etc., stains.  Suggestions, please!  Thank you!

I found a damp chamois to produce less shine but resulted in a more clear and neutral sound while Turtle Wax left a nice and sounded warmer but slowed the music’s pace down significantly.  Never tried Meguiars

I use my cat.

He spends most of the day sleeping, so I thought he should contribute something to our relationship.

He is a domestic short hair (tuxedo cat), but I don't think it matters.

Pledge and a microfiber cloth. Money 

I don't use wax/polish or cleaners, as my speakers are kept indoors and are not exposed to the outside elements like a car.

LOL!

There are also some very good ceramic automotive products out there that, if applied when the speakers are new, should last the lifetime of the speakers if kept inside, and will create a hard, shiny barrier against scratches and swirls. As always, test the product in an inconspicuous area. 

I meant to state the product I use is called Novus 1.They make 3 versions. I use it a couple of times a year, it really puts the shine back to original. I also use a swifter several times a month.

Whatever cloth one uses be sure the edging is not sewn with plastic thread. Only cotton.

+1 McGuire's Quick Detail

I use a microfiber cloth to wipe down the speakers.  On another note, I do the same on our high-gloss bedroom furniture and the wood trim in our cars.  

Use a moist sponge followed by a micro cloth.  You can buy the micro cloth at Costco.

I’ve used mother’s maybe twice a year, but for weekly touch ups, I have a smallish feather duster.

All the best.

I use an EGo 56 volt cordless leaf blower to remove surface dust from my high gloss speakers.  There is also the added benefit of removing additional debris such as album covers, stylus brushes, etc. from adjacent cabinets and furniture as well.

The "turbo" button is really helpful during high pollen season.

Wouldn’t rubbing the speakers with your cat creat a static electric charge? Which would spook the cat and cause it to scratch the speakers?

Might not be good for the finish.

I avoid cleaning them at all as no matter what you use it'll eventually put swirl marks into the finish. I have a cloth placemat covering my JL audio sub...

I second that: "Damp microfiber cloth followed by a clean dry microfiber cloth."

Wizards Mist-N-Shine motorcycle detailer.

You're welcome. 😏

Feather duster or Swiffer, no liquids whatsoever. Buff out any fingerprints with a microfiber cloth only. I had black high gloss speakers for two years in a south facing room with floor to ceiling windows and I am picky about appearance. I have high gloss white speakers now, which need dusting 10 x less often :)

I use saliva spit shine

I use Plexus. Also never buff in circles. Best to go on one direction 

Gerlitz Smudge Off

Works for priceless guitars…

Dark sunglasses and sour mash

I punch anyone who dares go near my speakers.

CORY Super High Gloss Piano Polish or DUSTOFF (get it at your ceiling fan store)

Both products Made In USA

I also use the Meguiars on the Wilsons. What really works well on the Camaro is Bead Maker. Easy on spray gives a brilliant shine on paint, decals, and windows (ala Rainx). I'm sure it would work wonders on the Wilsons. But I'm not driving them the same. Well, sometimes.😏

Just took my Wilson’s to the detail shop. Got them waxing my bowling balls too.

Waxing one’s balls, whatever next…

Bowling balls you smut merchant LOL 

The Meguirars is quite good.  Pledge, which I also use on my racing car, is easiest.  Pure carnuba airplane wax if your speakers are exposed to UV light from a window.  Zaino wax gives the deepest breathtaking 3D liquid-like gloss I have ever seen, but takes a great deal of time to apply to a vehicle.  It might be worth it for furniture having a smaller size as you mention. 

Seriously suggest you take a look at Zaino Z5 Pro Show Car polish. It is a polish and polymer sealant. I use it on my gloss black B&W 804 D3's and touch up with Zaino Z8 Grand Finale. Normal waxes like Meguiars  will evaporate in about 30 day. The Z5 has to be used in conjunction with the Zaio (like a catalyst) but I can assure you, it is superb. Check out the reviews. Also, to substantiate the comments by IBMJUNKMAN, I never use any cloth with any stiching at all. Zaino is the only place I know of who make "border free" towels. These are what I use on my car also. Micro fiber cloths will definitely create swirl marks.

Tried most of the choices above. The Meguires quick detailer and Plexus seem to work the best. IMO.

+1 on the Gerlitz it's amazing stuff!

Novus is great ,  Brillianize is great too.....  when I repaired copiers I used it on the glass so the original would not stick to the glass.   My sub is black lacquer and I use a feather duster,  still looks new and it's 10 years old at least

I leave them covered when not in use, works like a charm.
