- Can I use it on a maple fretboard?
- No. It is made for unfinished woods like rosewood, ebony and pau ferro. Maple boards usually have a finish that this oil can dull or gum up.
- How often should I apply it?
- Only when the board looks dry, typically once or twice a year, or at string changes if needed. Frequent use builds up residue.
- Does it clean as well as condition?
- It lifts light grime, but heavy buildup needs a dedicated fretboard cleaner first. This product is mainly a conditioner.
- How much should I use?
- A few drops on a cloth is enough for a whole board. Wipe off the excess and let it dry before restringing.
- Is it safe on a finished guitar body?
- Keep it on the fretboard. Wipe any drips off finished surfaces promptly, since oils can leave marks.
