Speaker Polish?

Paulwp, no need to have nightmares. I am only cautioning against going crazy with the oil. Some oil on a cloth, which is enough to bring back the surface luster, is all you need. Additional oil is unnecessary, and could cause the veneer problem. Reasonable sense should prevail. Normal use of oil on the finish from time to time will not harm your veneers. Some people just think that if some oil is good, then alot of oil is even better. This is why I made the cautionary statement.

Err, um, thanks Sean and Tom, but I wasn't that worried. The nice thing about the product I use is that you put it on a cloth, as you say, and then apply it to the surface. There are some other products that spray on like a foam and are easier to overdo.

Question, however, what do you do with older speakers that haven't been cared for? I acquired some second hand speakers in the last year or so that look like they were stored next to a furnace or left out in the sun or something, Very dry, and in the case of one pair, sort of grainy textured. Is more oil good for those speakers, or would something else be better?

The problem has been fixed. I used this stuff called "Panel Magic". I sprayed a little on a cloth, then wiped the area where the scratch was and its gone. I tried looking for the scratch with a loop and still cannot see it. I tried wiping the area again with water to see if will come off and it seems to be pernament. It did not change color or shine on the surrounding area at all. The scratch was not that deep to begin with and was white in color and now its gone. This product is an oil based product, I just found it in the laundry drawer.

Thanks to everyone for your suggestions,
