Lighter Fluid for Cleaning Guitar Strings

My husband, a guitar player for years, finds that putting some lighter fluid on a cloth and wiping down his guitar strings removes any dust and oil buildup from your hands. This will enhance the life of the strings also.

He has also used the lighter fluid to spot clean ties and spots on his suits saving an unnecessary emergency trip to the cleaners. It not only works like magic before your eyes, the fluid evaporates quickly not leaving behind a wet spot which soda water will do!

Lighter fluid is the same as mineral spirits.
