D'Addario Accessories Fret Polishing System

Saw it in a YouTube video and had to try it. It actually works incredibly well, touches up the frets nicely. Each cloth has a good amount of uses on them too.

The media could not be loaded. 5 stars because they do work pretty well. HOWEVER, I don't recommend these for the heavy duty work that mine truly needed. It took me 2 hours non-stop and a lot of elbow grease to shine all the frets.

Works pretty well, I'll normally start cleaning my frets with 3000 grit sanding pads then finish with these cloths.It won't take them to a super high-gloss shine without some elbow grease.But, for the price, not bad.

You will definitely see and feel a difference. If you are looking for a mirror finish, these may not be exactly what you’ll want. But, I do one major polishing a year (I play 10-20hrs a week). But these are exactly what I need for changing strings in between a full polish. Took about 5-10 minutes to take care of using the fret guard that is part of the packaging. Good addition to regular upkeep.

Arrives in a small D'addario paper/cardboard and plastic pouch container. Several 3"x3" squares you simply cut to smaller squares with scissors. Using the provided paper/cardboard die cut slots cover your fretboard leaving the single fret exposed for polishing and have at it. Used it on my COVID purchased Squier FSR Bullet Tele which out of the box had terrible fretwork (all 21 frets) but was later polished properly by a luthier. After much playing, the frets definitely needed some attention and after only a few seconds of polishing each one, they were back to a glass like smooth finish. No messy polish to deal with and simply wipe your frets with a clean cloth to make them all look like and feel amazing! I'd recommend doing this as your putting on fresh strings, you'll be surprised how well your new strings play and feel! You get enough polish cloth to do at least 6-8 guitars minimum so it's less than a dollar per guitar.

This product is a bit pricey for what you get. I used an entire sheet on my Squire Strat using the provided fret template cut-out. That this lasted about 2/3 of the way through the job. Best to use tape or fret guard. While the sheets do polish the frets, it takes much work and patience. Don't expect anything more than a good fret clean. These sheets won't do anything for even minor scratches on frets. Fine sandpaper or even fret erasers may yield better results.

They work well. But fret erasers are better and lasts longer
