Bellacura and Klavicura at Kirstein

When caring for a musical instrument, it is important to choose cleaning and care products that suit the particular surface. Bellacura and Klavicura follow precisely this specialised approach: instead of general-purpose furniture polish, they offer products specifically developed for musical instruments. Bellacura focuses on bowed and plucked instruments, while Klavicura is designed for pianos and grand pianos. Both product lines are offered by Bellacura Klavicura Vertrieb in Germany.

Bellacura has a history spanning more than 30 years and is run as a small-scale manufacturing business. Its products are filled, labelled and packaged in-house. The focus is on cleaning and caring for instrument surfaces with formulations tailored to their respective applications.

Bellacura for bowed and plucked instruments

Bellacura was developed for cleaning and caring for surface-treated woods. The care emulsion is pH-neutral and free from wax, silicone and abrasives. It is suitable for lacquered string instruments and can be used on guitars, violins, violas, cellos and viols, for example. It helps remove residues from the instrument body while caring for the treated surface.

In addition to the classic care emulsion, the range includes Bellacura Sensitive, fretboard oil, microfibre cloths and polishing cloths. This makes it possible to cover different instrument-care tasks. For bowed instruments, you can find suitable Bellacura products at Kirstein among the Cleaning Products & Rosin.

Care emulsion, Sensitive or fretboard oil?

The classic Bellacura care emulsion is intended for cleaning and caring for lacquered instrument surfaces. Bellacura Sensitive serves a comparable purpose but is odourless and free from allergy-triggering substances. Fretboard oil has a different role: it is used to clean and refresh fretboards and helps keep their surface supple. Bellacura also offers microfibre and cotton polishing cloths for quick cleaning without an additional care product.

Klavicura for pianos and grand pianos

Klavicura applies the care concept to keyboard instruments. The care emulsion was developed specifically for lacquered and polished pianos and grand pianos and can be used on light or dark, matt or polished surfaces. It is pH-neutral and free from wax, silicone and abrasives. It also has antistatic properties, a stain- and water-repellent effect and UV protection.

According to the manufacturer, Klavicura can also be used to clean the keyboard. This makes the care line suitable for musicians, music schools and other users who want to clean the surfaces and keyboard of their piano or grand piano regularly. You can find suitable products at Kirstein among the Care Products.

Choosing and using the right instrument care

The instrument itself is the first consideration when choosing a care product: Bellacura is intended for lacquered bowed and plucked instruments, while Klavicura is designed for pianos and grand pianos. For guitars and other string instruments, it is also important to distinguish between body and fretboard care. Fretboard oil serves a different purpose from a care emulsion intended for lacquered surfaces.

Before applying a care product, the manufacturer recommends testing the compatibility of the product and finish on a small, concealed area first. Bellacura care emulsion should also not be sprayed directly onto the instrument but applied sparingly with a suitable cloth. Contact with strings and unlacquered parts should be avoided when using Bellacura. This helps keep the treatment limited to the surfaces for which it is intended.
