I just bought a Damien Riot FR which has a satin black finish. Never had a guitar with satin black. (Looks like something Batman would play) Anyone have advice on cleaning?
I'm not really sure if the types of cleaners you should use are different, but I know if you rub it down with a cotton cloth too much, it'll start to become glossy.
I don't have much personal experience with satin finishes, so my only useful tip is to be very gentle when wiping it down.

Satin guitars though = no finger prints.
When it gets scratched though those spots become glossy.
