Never use silicone based polishes.
These types of polishes seep into and though the finish, where, when used over time, will harm the finish requiring refinishing work.
When seeped into the finish, some of the resultant symptoms might be sheen loss, hazing, and loss in clarity, cracking, crazing, or peeling.
When seeped through the finish into the wood grain, these types of polishes make refinishing a nightmare.
Wet-spots or fish-eyes develop when new finish is applied making it virtually impossible to achieve a new smooth finish.
