If we're talking about strings, you might consider DR Stringlife. It
doesn't contain petroleum distillates so it shouldn't be hazardous to your
fingerboard/frets/inlay/finish. It does seem to work as advertised,
extending string life.
What instrument polish do you all recommend? I borrowed someone's old
roundneck to use while waiting on my Rayco, and when it arrived it was a bit
grubby. I polished it up using Stelling Glyde-Cote, and while it looks
great, it's so slick it won't hardly stay on my lap...
