Can I use the lemon oil on a maple fretboard?

No. Fretboard 65 is for unfinished woods like rosewood and ebony. Maple boards are usually sealed with finish, so clean them with the polish instead.

Does the polish work on satin and nitrocellulose finishes?

Yes. Formula 65 is made for any finish, including poly, satin and nitro. Wipe it on and buff with a dry cloth.

Once or twice a year is enough for most boards, or when the wood looks dry. Over-oiling can soften frets and leave residue.

One bottle of Formula 65 polish, one bottle of Fretboard 65 Ultimate Lemon Oil and two polish cloths.

Yes. The kit is recommended for guitar and bass, and the same steps apply to both.

Not necessarily. You can clean around the strings, but the job is easier and the board gets cleaner with the strings off.
