Is it safe on nitrocellulose lacquer?

Yes. Gibson describes the polish as safe for all finish types, and nitro lacquer is the finish Gibson uses on many of its guitars.

Does it work on polyurethane finishes?

Yes. It is listed as compatible with all finish types, so modern poly finishes are fine.

What is included in the combo?

One pump bottle of polish and one 100% cotton flannel cloth.

Can I use it on the fretboard?

It is intended for varnished surfaces. Avoid raw wood fretboards like rosewood or ebony and use a dedicated fretboard oil there instead.

Spray a small amount onto the cloth, not the guitar, then wipe the varnished surface and buff with a dry part of the cloth.

Is it a deep cleaner?

No. It is a routine polish for dust and fingerprints. Heavy grime or oxidation needs a stronger cleaner first.

Our take on the Gibson Pump Polish/Cloth Combo

This is Gibson's own pump-spray guitar polish bundled with a cotton flannel cloth. The polish is formulated for varnished finishes and is described as safe for all finish types, so it works on nitrocellulose lacquer and modern poly finishes alike. The flannel cloth is soft enough for routine wipe-downs without scratching. It suits players who want a simple, brand-matched cleaning kit for gloss-finished guitars, and it competes with general-purpose polishes like Dunlop and Music Nomad on convenience rather than deep cleaning power.
