    Hi Alkay, great effect with the striping.

    I have used both lemon oil & DT wax on my rosewood fret boards and whilst oil is easier to use it does dry out quicker and ended up doing DT wax over the top of some and now most of them have been waxed. The 2nd benefit of using wax is that it holds a darker fret board colour for a bit longer than lemon oil does.

    Just my 2c worth.

    Cheers, Waz

    Thanks for the tips Waz and Simon. I ordered the lemon oil last night so I'll give that a go first and then I might try the wax in the future. I have a couple of older guitars here that badly need cleaning on the fingerboard anyway.
