    When your satin black klipsch finish looks old

    Believe it or not, black shoe polish paste. Just rub on to your cabinet let sit for just a couple minutes and polish off, they will look like new and you can wax after with furniture polish and it does not come off. My 16 yr old klf 30s look brand new.

    I will have to try that on an old pair of RP3's that need some attention.

     dilute the bitumen using gasoline or paint thinner (not very washy!! just like potato sauce is Ok) apply it on the black veneer and scratches... let sit there for a minute or so and then give it a wipe... It might smell nasty for a while but not as bad as shoe shine wax Stick out tongue

    When I did my KLFs I used it just as you would a pair of black dress shoes, wipe on straight out of the can and polish to a nice shine, doesnt get any easier and less chemicals on your cabinets.
