                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Yesterday I decided to take  trip over to see a guy that did some repairs to one of my guitars a few years back.  The guy is in very good standing and he's been repairing, building, and tweaking guitars for some 40 plus years now.  So I ask him what he uses to condition the fretboards of the guitars he works on.  He handed me a bottle of this  <a href="http://www.music123.com/Micro-Key-Oil-i144595.music">http://www.music123.com/Micro-Key-Oil-i144595.music</a>    ( Micro Key Oil ).  He said"Use this, you'll be fine".  I noticed it was only about 3/4 full so i asked if he had anymore.  He said "Nah, you can have it, the 2 others I have have less than that in them".  I try to refer people over to him anytime I can.]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[so.., u do think that i must avoid "fast fret" for my fretboard,right?well,  i'm now confuse, because fast-fret's manual tells that it doesn't damage the finishes n it is primarly used for cleaning n prolonged fretboard life...so,which one is true?I expect they're both true. It won't damage your finish, but if you ever want to refinish your guitar, the silicone that's absorbed into the wood will cause the new finish to adhere poorly, pulling away and leaving bare spots of wood with blobs of finish around them. That's what's called "fisheye" and it's a real problem for finishing. If it happens, you have to strip all the finish off and start over, with fisheye preventer mixed into the lacquer, varnish or whatever you're using. I personally like to avoid anything with silicones for polishing guitars, furniture, guns or anything made of wood.]]></content:encoded>
