Piano Scratch Removal Kit Includes:

  • Cory High Gloss Piano Polish or Satin Sheen Polish (8oz)
  • Cory Buff-Brite -scratch remover (4oz)
  • Cory Polisher Cloth
  • Scratch Removal Touch Up Marker
  • Fill Stick Rub on Wax Pencil


This is the ultimate kit to repair scratches of any size on your piano, piano bench, or furniture. For the small scratches, use the Cory Buff-Brite with the Cory Polishing Cloth, to gently buff out the smaller scratches while cleaning your piano finish at the same time. For larger scratches, use the scratch removal touch-up marker - ideal for edge and scratch recoloring. This marker seals, stains, and finishes in one easy step. Also included is a Fill Stick rub on wax pencil, designed to help eliminate gouges and abrasions.

Finally, the piano finish repair kit comes with either an 8oz bottle of Cory High Gloss Piano Polish or Cory Satin Sheen Piano Polish, based on the finish of your piano (select which polish you would like at the drop-down menu). When you're buffing out the small scratches of your piano with the Cory Buff-Brite, for example, you will have one small area of your piano that will be clean and shiny--which will make it stand out from the rest of the piano. Complete the job, and use the Cory Piano Polish to give your entire piano that clean and polished look.

These are professional-level cleaner and finish repair products, and are great not only for your piano, but for furniture as well. Having this set around the house comes in real handy any time you need to touch up furniture, picture frames, or any other wood-based product.

Pictured above is an example of a repaired piano leg, using the scratch removal touch-up marker from the kit. As you can see, the black scratch removal marker nicely covers up the scratched wood, and blends it to where it is not even noticeable. A quick note with regards to black finishes, we often get customers purchasing this kit who first attempted to use a black permanent marker on their scratched finish. The problem with a permanent marker however, is that it is not a solid black--it has a purple tone to it, where you will notice the contrast to the black furniture. Additionally, it is a different type of marker not designed for finish repair, so it looks like blotched ink puddles on the wood.

Usage note: cleaning and buffing a piano, always go with the grain, not against it (if you go against it, when you stand back, you'll notice the circle patterns you created with the polish)

Disclaimer: This is a piano finish touch-up repair kit--obviously it is not going to look 100% brand new when you do it (you would have to refinish your entire piano to get that). The idea is to cover the defects, and make them not as noticeable/obvious.



Cory Satin Sheen Piano Polish - Cleaner and Conditioner:

Satin Sheen helps maintain satin finishes easily. Use Satin Sheen to remove fingerprints, smudges and grime. Works on poly as well as lacquer finishes. Use regularly to reduce static and protect against fingerprints and oils. For best results, spray on cloth then apply to finish, rubbing in direction of grain evenly.

Buff Brite (Scratch Remover):

Buff-Brite is a high tech, water base buffing compound that gently removes scratches and cleans high performance finishes. Especially formulated to clean and buff polyurethane, lacquer, brass, nickel, silver, etc. Buff-Brite works easily on guitars, drums, cymbals, band instruments, high gloss and satin ebony pianos, synthesizers, instrument hardware, and tarnished name decals. Buff-Brite cleans without leaving a greasy film. Excellent for deep cleaning fingerprint oils from poly and lacquer satin ebony finishes.

Microfiber Polishing cloth:

A soft, thick weave, non-treated flannel cloth for application and final shining of all Cory polishers and cleaners. Machine washable. Becomes more absorbent after each washing. Comes in protective, reusable pouch.

Scratch Remover Touch-Up Marker (Black):

These valve type markers seal, stain and finish in one easy step. Ideal for edge and scratch recoloring. Touch Up Markers are available in many of the most popular shades and can be applied over wood fills, "rub throughs" or worn edges to create an invisible repair. Touch Up Markers may be used with all types of finishes without worry. As it permanently stains wood, it refinishes worn-out spots and scratches--dries instantly.

Fill Stick Rub on Wax Pencil:

A rub-on putty and wax pencil that fixes and eliminates scars, scratches, gouges, and abrasions on furniture, picture frames, leather, plastics, and paneling.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best piano polish and cleaning brand?

Cory is the most trusted and used brand in piano care. Their products are specifically formulated for piano finishes, including high-gloss, satin, and wood tones. Trusted by technicians and musicians worldwide, Cory cleaners and polishes are gentle, effective, and safe for use on fine instruments.

What’s the best way to remove scratches from a piano finish?

Start with a dedicated piano finish cleaner like this repair kit. It safely removes surface scuffs and swirl marks without damaging the wood or underlying finish. After deep cleaning, follow up with a polish designed for satin or high-gloss finishes.

Can you repair a dull or cloudy piano finish?

Yes — cloudiness often comes from wax buildup, improper cleaning, or age. Using a piano-specific finish cleaner will help remove haze and restore shine without damaging the finish.

How do I make my old piano look new again?

To restore the look of an older piano, start with a finish repair kit designed to fix surface-level damage. These kits safely remove scratches, chips, and scuff marks from the finish. Next, use the included cleaner to lift away dust, grime, and residue buildup. Finish by applying a polish that restores the piano’s original luster and protects the surface moving forward.

Can I use furniture polish or household cleaners on a piano?

No. Regular furniture polish and household cleaners can damage piano finishes by leaving streaks, wax buildup, or even removing protective coatings. It’s important to use specialized piano cleaning products designed to protect delicate finishes and materials.

How often should I clean and polish my piano?

For most home pianos, a light dusting once a week and polish every 1–2 months is ideal. In schools or performance venues, where use is heavier, monthly cleaning with a professional-grade product like Cory polish helps maintain appearance and finish integrity.

How do I repair chips in a piano’s finish?

To repair chips in your piano’s finish, use a furniture touch-up marker or wax fill pencil designed for wood restoration. First, clean the damaged area to remove dust or residue. Then use the marker or pencil to fill in the chipped spot, matching the color to your piano’s finish. This helps blend the repair with the surrounding surface, making the chip less noticeable.

These products are ideal for covering minor chips and scratches, helping restore the piano’s appearance without professional refinishing.
