I figure lemon oil came from a tree, and something from the ground shouldn't be used to treat raw wood.


The stuff that is sold as "lemon oil" doesn't actually contain any lemon ...it is simply mineral oil with a chemically enhanced fragrance.

Bore oil , such as "Fret Doctor", OTOH, does come from a tree.

I use Orange oil from Western Australia, and on the bottle it says, higher orange content than competitors, 100% plant derived. Removes all the dirt and makes old FB look new
