Rule number 1, by cleaning it regularly...I almost never use chemicals. No matter what you do, when you apply a chemical to a finish, it changes it's molecular structure just a wee bit. Most of the time, that's absolutely no big deal and pretty much all guitar cleaners are fine and safe products. I tend to use a nice soft cloth and give them a semi-regular rub down and don't often need chemicals. Not a vigorous wipe down, just a nice polish up....as for the Strat that is. I have another guitar with a nitrocellulose finish and it doesn't need a polishing up, just a quick wipe down. It's nitro though so no matter what, it's gonna alter a little.
