    Default Natural ingredient furniture polish - ok for nitro?

    I found THIS furniture polish under the counter at my house. It looks like it would be a really good, low-cost body polish. Ingredients are: water, olive oil, orange oil, and and emulsifier. NO PETROLEUM DISTILATES.

    Any foreseeable problems with a nitro finish?

    I sprayed furniture polish on a cloth, then proceeded to polish my Evo's headstock. Turned it green.

    The Ingredients do seem benign...But! I'd still be apprehensive B4 I used it on
    a Nitro finish. Try it in a inconspicuous place if possible. The real enemy of nitro & other finishes is Silicone. You could spray a whole guitar down with a Siliconed based wax. It will look fine and nice and shiny...BUT, You've now just contaminated your finish.
