Seek advise for cleaning an acoustic guitar

[BlisteredFingers]

Hi everyone

I have a Epiphone AJ220S. the metal tuning pegs and frets are getting quite oxidized and the fretboard has those grimes(sorta like human dirt?) lol. Anyway, any one can kindly advise what kind of cleaning kit and how should i get about cleaning my guitar?(never clean one before).

Planning to get this from swee lee

hey, there good to see fellow players making effort to look after their instruments.

i'm using this chrome polish for my metal parts (frets included). lately, i've been looking at non-guitar products to address some maintenance issues because they are simply more effective, not to mention more value-for-money.

keep in mind that fretboard moisturizing fluid does very little to remove dirt off the fretboard. please consider something that has a (gentle) scouring effect such as this one:

do keep in mind that fluid with strong scouring/ 'lift-off' effect are highly likely to dry open-pore wood so naturally, re-moisturize the fretboard after cleaning it
