[pianotech] cloudy finish

[Dean May]

Those satin wood finishes are often a poly base with a lacquer coating. Try
wiping it down with Naphtha to remove any oil residue and then spraying a
small area with blush eliminator.

What do I do with a light walnut satin poly Kawai where the finish is
cloudy. If this were a lacquer finish it looks like too much moisture in the
material. But this is happening on a 15 year old piano. It looks like dust,
but it won't rub off.
