Hello,

I’m building a guitar for a school woodwork project and I am approaching the finishing stage. My original plan was to order some tru-oil but my teacher said that the danish oil at school does the same thing and I don’t have to pay for it. I would be applying it to both the body and the neck. I have a few questions about it-

Is danish oil any good for a guitar finish?
Do I need to do any preparation before oiling (I’ve only ever done spray can painting on guitars)?
Must I fill the grain? How is this done?
How do I apply it best? Roller? Brush? Cloth?
Can it be polished like normal or in a different method?
Must I clear coat it after?

Here’s the most recent picture of the body I have, the neck is a standard pitbull neck

Sorry for the block of questions but I want to do this right first go
