What should be used to keep the finish clean?

Get a microfiber cloth to wipe it down every time you play it. There are a lot of products to clean metal, I go over the nickel coverplate on my National once in a while with Flitz.

I use Zildjian cymbal polish (not abrasive) on my dobro and banjo.

Diddo's on the micro fiber cloth, I got one free with my National model D purchase and I love it....no smears, just cleans right up, and fast too...

Micro fiber cloth and "SemiChrome" make a good combination.
Works on Chrome or Nickel.

Ah, the Semi Chrome memories.... I grew up with Semi-Chrome and/or Brass'o under my fingernails as my father restored antique show cars with alot of brass and nickel on them, and guess who did all the polishing? Now? I could care less, let it tarnish....
My banjo is the pits, has stuff growing on it... hasnt been cleaned in Mmm...Id say 20 years...

You want to be carefull with Nickel, it's a lot easier to polish through than chrome.
