I always recommend Fret Doctor from www.beafifer.com for rosewood, ebony or pao ferro boards. Magic stuff - conditions and darkens the wood and lasts well. Once a year with that and just use conventional "Lemon" oil (Dunlop or D'Andrea) for fretboard cleaning every second string change.

[EDIT - Reinhard posted before me, so consider this post a big +1]

Looks like I've been using my lemon oil wrong ? I use that once a year for conditioning of the fretboard...

OK, so I've only been using some lemoil. You just go over to that site and order a bottle of this Fret Doctor? If anyone is going to get some please let me know and I'd like to intrude with a bottle of the stuff as well if I may.
