I've got a Spoiler with the "Satin-like" finish. When I look closely at the face(under decent light), I can see what looks like light "spots" on the finish around the bridge area. It's very subtle and I'm being very picky, but will the Alembic polish (I just ordered today) get those spots out? Does this stuff kind of polish AND clean?

Thanks!

The polish won't correct finish problems, but it will make the bass very clean. A satin finish Spoiler - what year is it from? The original Spoilers were all satin finish. Do you think you might be able to photograph to spots - I'm curious to see it.
