    On Buying My Acoustics At The Acoustic Inn Fretboard Oil

    Hi Guys ,On buying an Acoustic guitar from The Acoustic Inn. I was recommended to put Marveer By Kiwi
    On the fretboard .it smelt nice kind of Cherry but it conditioned the fretboard beautifully . Trying to find some more
    If anyone sees it or knows of it ,can you let me know it's whereabouts . The spray Version is supposedly dire smudgy.


    Big thanks
    Kimball

    My Nana uses Marveer on her French Polished side board.. Has done so for over 70 years!
    I will ask her where she gets it.
    Never thought to use it on a fretboard though..

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

    Yeah DB , Andrew at The Acoustic Inn says it's all he used on the Martins Matins Cole Clarke Fret boards
    There was never any build up tackiness and contains no silicones .

    The bottles of Marveer oil were deleted from production a few years ago. The spray cans are all they sell now.

    Hmmmm, not so sure on this one - just looked at the MSDS - Liquefied petroleum gas, liquified hydrocarbon and water with minor quantities of other non hazardous ingredients are possible...

    Just thinking - might work if you have another finish on top, but on the raw wood - aren't you risking drying the wood out not hydrating it like with Lem Oil / Dr Ducks, etc...
