Scotchbrite on neck to remove gloss - oil after?

[AngelCrusher]

Just curious what is the recommended oil to use after scotchbrite on the neck. Back of my necks feel very fast now, but I feel like I should protect them something - correct?

If the neck is coated with poly and simply de-glossed you're done. Same goes for nitro.

On the other hand, if all of the finish is removed, oil would be a good idea.

Ok, I am not an expert at knowing that unfortunately. I probably ran the scotchbrite over the neck 5-6 times and there is a noticeable difference in terms of look compared to wear the tuners are. That being said, I spent maybe 30 seconds doing it and was done.

So basically you have just flattened the gloss. Leave it at that as an oil will not soak in anyway.

I'll run it over sticky gloss necks to make em less sticky, usually Ibanez, nothing major though.

Yeah you're neck is still finished. Just rub it with the pad when it starts getting shiny again.

I use one on my G&L neck, works perfect, just hit it again as needed since playing will gloss it back up after a while.
