    Default Cleaning shells

    I know this question has probably been asked a million times but Im honestly to lazy today to do a search. Just got a set of Tama Rockstar shells and they are in need of a good cleaning. Mainly just dust on them but a few smudges here and there. What is the best method and cleaner for the job ?

    Mild soap, water, Vinegar is safe.Maybe a natural oil furniture polisher etc I would not trust any cleaner with chemicals in them on a wood finish, wrap is a different story. .

    Thanks for all the input guys. I just used a damp rag to wipe them down and dried them as I went. Once I get the time Im gonna put a good wax job on then and buff lightly.
