Hi,
I use a very high gloss piano black moulding which shows all the marks possible. Can anyone recommend a spray for cleaning these. I've seen glass cleaner but not sure if it will do the job. At the moment I use a simple duster, but I'm sure there's a better 'proper' method to this.
thanks.

I don't know about a 'proper' method, but just before I wrap in bubble wrap, I just use the cloth I have cleaned the glass with and wipe the frame, then go over with a dry cloth

A microfibre cloth works for me on anything shiny.

These mouldings are a pain basically. The only thing to do is handle with cotton gloves and wrap them up as soon
as you can. The only thing worse are matt black ones which you can't polish.

I use a lot of Wessex 1" square gloss black and I like it as it's prone to flaws and marks I go and collect to check it over. In my workshop I too use cotton gloves and a microfiber cloth but the guys at Wessex seem to get good results with a little spit and the corner of their tee shirt
