I am not sure if there is any solvent in it or not. I wouldn't use any oil on nylon. it would at the very least soften them and keep them from being in tune. **Q: Does this work for Bass strings?** A: Yes. I’ve been using this for several years to clean my bass strings. Works well and extends the life of the strings. **Q: Can i use to clean violin strings?** A: Do not use this on violin strings. **Q: while this product cleans and lubricate the strings as it will normally do, will it be good for the maple fretboard as well? thanks!** A: Planet Waves XLR8 String Lubricant is very difficult to use in that it is hard to apply to all facets of the strings and it dries out too quickly. I would try something else. ## Frequently Bought Together - D'Addario Accessories XLR8 String Lubricant/Cleaner - D'Addario Accessories Pro-Winder Guitar String Winder, Cutter, Bridge Pin Puller - All in One Guitar Tool - Black - Tone Fingerease Guitar String Lubricant 2 Pack --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.om/products/5475103-daddario-accessories-xlr8-string-lubricant-cleaner](https://www.desertcart.com.om/products/5475103-daddario-accessories-xlr8-string-lubricant-cleaner) --- *Product available on Desertcart Oman* *Store origin: OM* *Last updated: 2026-09-25*
