      I'd suggest using Quik Interior Detailer on the guitar. Easily removes fingerprints and dust.

        When dealing with the finish on most guitars it is very common for owners to not want any silicone in products they use in the event they choose to refinish the instrument. While silicone in and of itself is not going to cause any problems with the finish, it can pose problems when refinishing a surface. In an automotive body shop they routinely use a variety of cleaners in the prep stages that ensure all traces of silicone are removed, and I have to admit I don't quite understand why guitar refinishers aren't able to do the same, but there it is.

        So, to directly answer the question RE: silicone in QD - yes, it does contain silicone.

        The best alternative, and the most commonly used quick detail spray among guitar owners, is our M34 Final Inspection. In fact, when we used to make the guitar kit for Fender, it essentially consisted of M09 Swirl Remover 2.0, M07 Show Car Glaze, and M34, all of which are silicone free.
