Question

Oiling a neck


Hi there,

For neck of a guitar, my most favourite finish is oiled ones. I really like the slippery feeling of it. Anyway, i couldnt find Tung Oil in my city, but i could find "Teak Oil" instead. Is it possible to use it for finishing backside of a neck? Or should i seek for Tung Oil?

Thanks

I order mine from this place. They won't ship larger than an 8oz bottle but you won't need more than that for a loooong time. I don't know about shipping to Turkey, but they probably will. I get the low gloss.

Thanks a lot guys

I will give a try. I dont have lots of hope about this. Because many of chemicals cannot shipped by air.
