Fret Polishing Versus Fretboard Cleaning
Frets are the metal strips across the neck. The fingerboard is the wood or other material around them. The 5410 is intended for the metal fret surfaces, whereas a fretboard oil such as Dunlop 6554 is used only on compatible unfinished wood. Do not assume a cleaning cloth can repair deep grooves, buzzing, uneven frets or a worn-out setup.
Use Carefully
Support the guitar securely and protect adjacent wood, finish and sensitive hardware before polishing. Work gently and stop if the manufacturer’s surface finish or fret material is uncertain. If the frets are severely worn or the strings buzz, ask a technician to assess whether crowning, dressing or other mechanical work is needed.
