Thanks! Bedford Target Supplies and Sportsman Gun Centre are two more. I'll be ordering this week, from somebody. I don't think I've found any in mainland Europe that carry both and the gunstock wax seems tricky to find at all.

tip: Google searches can sometimes be a lot easier and faster by adding a site or domain to look for. As an example I found "birchwood casey site:co.uk" very useful!

While we're at it, 'cause I don't remember, did anyone ever sort out the video question? Drew only mentioned the Tru-oil. Is the wax necessary or just optional?

DR Kev - for what it's worth - the nearest I get to the factory finish is just by using the oil. When I use the wax, the neck looks a lot slicker than when it comes from the factory.

Interesting.

Do you chaps use tru oil on the EBMM maple fretboard, or just wonder wipes or lemon oil?

Wax only on back of neck, or wax on 'board too?

There has always been chat on this, but never seen a definitive answer for all maple :confused:

Spud, I am gonna attack my Axis Sport all maple neck this month. Just to echo DrKev, would you go for the wax after the oil?
