how to clean 'rubber finish' guitar?

Howdy.

I'm going to be buying this guitar soon:

I have had a mess around with it in waltons, but after about 3 minutes of playing i noticed there was a lot of fingerprints/smudges.
Understandably, not all of them could have been mine, but it got me thinking as to how i would clean it?

It isnt a shiny finish that i could clean with with a standard guitar oil cleaner and would like to have whatever is needed to give it a once over from as soon as i take it out of the box.



Also, i bought an epiphone thunderbird gothic bass about a year and a bit ago and where it is similar in finish, it also feels as if any little rub with a cloth is nearly rubbing the rubberyness off it.
If that even makes sense.
But as it is black i dont see it as much but i can imagine it being a hell of a lot more noticeable in the cream/brown colour.

how to make rubber shiney?
Oil and a whip?
I don't know but there must be a rubber fetish forum that can help ;-)

the manufacturer should provide this information to you.

The finish is called a 'Satin' finish and the best way to clean it is to use a slightly moist microfibre cloth.
