Hi Steve!
I gotta say I really cannot see lacquer bonding onto an oily surface very well. In fact i am willing to bet that lacquer will end up peeling off eventually. For my fretwork projects i use a small paint brush to get lacquer in the inside cuts . I then wipe the drippings and spray the surface.
The lacquer alone will bring out the beauty of the wood.

I guess I missed the point as to WHY USE LEMON OIL ???

Many intricate fretwork pattern are difficult if finish because of all the interior cuts, The lemon oil is handy because you can just dip the project in the bath of oil and it's completely coated. easy and quick. Enhances the look of the wood. Adds no protection though so you need to spray with a lacquer to complete. There are plenty of other ways this is just my way.

What is the point of using the lemon oil if you are laquering it anyway? What does the lemon oil do for the wood? Thanks.

it don't have to be 100% lemon oil right? i just found some old English oil under my sink and was wondering if that would work.
