Hello Ned,
If you've already gone through the original finish, the best thing to

conservator and lutenist, who recommended using this polish for just
the sort of thing you're concerned about. I'm also aware of one
Graham, I had the same problem, so I switched to Andreas von Holst
and Klaus Jacobsen theorbos. The instruments balance so perfectly
