Mirca Strings & Ebony Cleaner

MIRCA STRINGS & EBONY CLEANER  has been formulated mainly with vegetable and mineral components that deeply clean the strings and the fingerboard, leaving a thin protective and softening film that contributes to extending the life of the strings.

It is made up of a network of lamellar liquid crystals in conjunction with mineral micro particles, biodegradable surfactants and vegetable oils that facilitate the release of active substances on the strings and fingerboard, prolonging their conservation, shine and hydration.

MIRCA helps limit the appearance of microorganisms that reduce the life of the strings and the degradation of the ebony of the fingerboard through deep cleaning, intense hydration and creating a persistent, long-lasting protective film.

MIRCA STRINGS & EBONY CLEANER has been developed for application on ebony fingerboards and strings made of different metals (silver, aluminum, stainless steel, titanium, tungsten, chrome, bronze, etc). It offers optimal cleaning by removing traces of grease, oil residues, rosin, bacteria and dirt in general.

It is packaged in an acrylic airless container to prolong shelf life and is presented in 40ml or 1.35 fl.oz containers.

MIRCA STRINGS & EBONY CLEANER is antioxidant, antibacterial, antimicrobial and antifungal. Its application incorporates in the strings and the fingerboard an excellent tactile recovery that facilitates the playing of the instrument making, if it is the case, the sweat of the hand becomes less assimilable by the ebony and uncomfortable.

  • Seoyun Moon

    Violinist - Paris, France

    Thank you very much for inventing FASTER Silver. It has given my violin a new life!

  • Enrico Balboni

    Concertmaster - Orchestra del Teatro La Fenice di Venezia. Italy

    I had heard good reviews from fellow musicians who had installed FASTER in their instruments, so I decided to do the same in my Stefano Scarampella violin.

    With FASTER Silver, the instrument has immediately responded with much effortless sound production and an increase in harmonics and brightness. The sound is now warmer and complete, to such an extent that I decided to install another one in my Roberto Collini viola, obtaining a more than satisfactory response.

    I wholeheartedly thank maestro José María Lozano for this fantastic opportunity, and without reservations recommend FASTER to all those seeking to improve the quality of their instruments.

  • Pavel Gomziakov

    Cello soloist & chamber musician - Lisboa, Portugal

    There have been many pieces of research on acoustic improvement on cello spikes. I tried almost all of them, but none convinced me. However, the FASTER Artica 600 cello endpin makes a real difference!

    Sound becomes free and achieves a large projection in the concert hall.

  • Nicolas Hartmann

    Principal cellist - Orquestre National de Lyon. France

    I enjoy very much playing my cello with my new FASTER Artica 600 Titanium endpin. The instrument sounds better. The projection is more efficient, and the sound is more rounded, deep, and rich in harmonics.

    I am so happy!

  • Gabriele Geminiani

    Principal cellist - Orchestra Santa Cecilia. Roma, Italy

    José María Lozano, and I am incredibly satisfied with the results. From the very first moment, I have noticed a massive improvement in my violoncello.

    I recommend this endpin to all cellists for being such a valuable invention.

  • Scott Dickinson

    Viola soloist, chamber musician and principal violist of the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra - Scotland

    Dear José María, thank you so much again for helping me and my viola with the FASTER Titanium. I am so happy!

    Many people have noticed an improvement in my viola, so a very big thank you. I have told many people about you and will continue to do this!

    Thank you again and all very best wishes.

  • Günther Sanin

    Concertmaster - Orchestra Arena di Verona. Verona - Italy

    The FASTER Silver has increased the sound and the harmonics in my violin, thus getting a quicker response and making it easier to play. Some fellow musicians ask me whether I had a new violin!

    I am very much satisfied with the results and recommend it to all violinists.

    Thank you for your valuable help in making my violin even more beautiful!

  • Rodrigo Moro Martín

    Principal double bassist - Orquesta Nacional de España & Mahler Chamber Orchestra. Spain

    The FASTER Artica endpins improve the sound enormously, and also the instrument’s response. Its reaction is more pleasant, and an improvement in the string resonance is noticeable both in the bow and the left hand.

    In my case and my instrument, it considerably increases the sound value. It is not only a matter of power and brightness but also of sound quality.

    I have tried two endpins, the Artica Titanium and the Artica Silver. With the titanium model, the sound gets more rounded, and the range of harmonics is much better than with a regular endpin. The feeling with the silver model is similar, although, in my opinion, the sound quality is much better, being much more round and refined.
