Fretboard Maintenance: Cleaning The Fretboard

Wraith Fretboard Cleaner is specially formulated using gentle solvents and oils and is designed to gently remove dirt and built-up grime. Wraith Fretboard Cleaner is safe for use on all unsealed fretboards.

How to Clean the Fretboard.

  • Apply a liberal amount of Wraith Fretboard cleaner onto a soft, lint free cloth and apply to fretboard. Heavily soiled fretboards may need a heavier application.
  • Allow the fretboard cleaner to soften any built-up dirt for a minute or two.
  • If there is build up of dirt under the frets, use a toothpick or soft bristle toothbrush to gently scrape away the dirt.
  • Using a clean lint-free cloth and a little elbow grease, wipe the fretboard clean.
  • Heavily soiled fretboards may need to have a second application of Wraith Fretboard cleaner to remove stubborn dirt.

Wraith Guitars recommend cleaning your fretboard with every string change to keep your instruments in tip top condition.
