I hate the Nitro finish on Les Pauls... my one and only Les Paul suffers from "Sticky Neck" which I've been told has to do with it being over coated prior to previous coats properly curing.
What Does Sticky Neck mean?
Basically, you polish it up, and it's like a perfect finish, and normal. After about 15 minutes of playing though, it starts to get tacky and actually soft enough that you leave fingerprints, causing drag and well just being sticky....... however, polishing restores it. Apparently, my only option is to completely strip and refinish the entire guitar....
Anyways, my point is, I have 2 dozen other guitars that are not Nitro and I just use Dunlop 65 with a microfiber cloth. No problems, I wipe down after every play (guitar and strings and neck) and store in cases and all my guitars look as good as the day I bought them and my strings last upwards of 6 months.
