Review: Good stuff! - Does the job at hydrating the fretboard. Easy to use and should last quite a few uses!
Review: Like Oil of Ulay for your fretboard - I have owned a guitar for 20+ years and never thought of things like maintenance before but as I get older and no better at playing my thoughts have turned towards learning a little bit more about maintenance and set up of guitars. This was also spurned on by my son taking up the guitar and being much better than I ever was and will ever be. I still have the edge though because he doesn't have the patience to do the boring bits like changing strings, adjusting the set up and general maintenance. I have used this on a few of our old guitars which were well past dirty - I didn't realise until I started cleaning them. They came up a treat with a bit of lighter fluid and elbow grease - the cloth looked like I'd de greased an engine with it!!! I used the conditioner and the difference was very surprising. It felt better and somehow made the guitar look younger! It should last for ages - you don't need much and I will be using it regularly from now one, particularly when I change strings etc. Nice producet and good service.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I use this on my Cello fingerboard?**
A: I use mine on my Mandolins both of which have ebony fingerboards, my Tenor guitar and Ukes which all have Rosewood fingerboards. If the Cello is either woods then it should be fine, but there are so many different types of wood being used now some of which have a 'permanent' finish to artificially darken them. I wouldn't use it on those as the product may lift the surface colour off. I'm guessing that a Cello will have a good ebony fingerboard, in which case it would be fine. Be careful with the amount, as a little goes a long way. I put mine on with a soft fluff free cloth and gently work it all over, then wait for about 10 minutes, and then wipe all the residue off. I've been using it for about five years and it's great. I usually do it when I'm re-stringing about four times a year. I'm in the North of England. Hope this helps. David 😎

**Q: Can this be used on maple fretboards?**
A: Generally no. Rosewood and ebony fretboards are unsealed - no varnish. The wood therefore needs nourishment to prevent drying out, shrinking and cracking. That is what this oil is designed for. Maple fretboards however are varnished, and don't need oiling, and it wouldn't penetrate into the wood anyway. The varnish on maple fretboards does become scratched yellowed and grubby, only some of which can be cleaned off, and this oil isn't designed for that.

**Q: what are all the ingredients? Interesting that something that is going to come into contact with your fingers is a skin irritant!**
A: You can look them up, but I've used this plenty and never had any irritation on my skin ....

**Q: Anyone has an ingredient list for this?**
A: No ingredients are listed on the bottle except that it contains petroleum distallates, these help the oil in the product seep into the wood pores by 'searching' into them and opening them, the oils being too dense to naturally find their way in by themselves so they are partly diluted by the Petroleum distallates, the oil is probably a plant based oil.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Value and Great Results
*by M***. on 6 January 2016*

I was a little apprehensive at first but this is actually a great product. I only used a few drops on a rag and it was more than enough to do my entire fretboard before I restrung it. The results are substantially noticeable and has brought out the deeper tones on my fretboard making it look new again. For the price and how long this will last year I really don't see a downside.
