Have not heard of that one, but have been using these products for several years with good results and no ill effects.

This may make some cringe, but I have been using a product for well over a year now with no ill effects, including my 314. The product is Formby's Conditioning Furniture Refinisher. The stuff cleans a shaft of all chalk, dirt and grime like right now! I use it every time I play and I'm always amazed how dirty a shaft gets from a single session. I use a lint-free cloth with a modest amount of cleaner. I have also used extra-fine steel wool with a little cleaner for a deeper cleaning. The product will not raise the wood grain nor will it dry out the wood. The conditioners in the product realy make the shaft feel slick afterwards. Need to be careful on older shafts and cues though, because the product will remove laquer, shellac, and varnish. I won't harm polyurethane. The refinisher is available in Wal-mart for about $7 a pint. This is alot cheaper than $8 for 1-ounce bottles of the specialty cleaners. I have taken the product to my hangout and tried it on housecues with great success. Post a note if you try it.[/list][/code]

For you Mother's (waxers), here's something a bit less extreme than the above refinishing:

Wood Finish Supply
Wood Cleaner & Wax Remover
(NEW V99 Low Odor Formula)

Wood Cleaner & Wax Remover dissolves and cleans old layers of dirt, grime, grease, smoke, old wax & polish buildup, fingermarks and other impurities. Wood Cleaner contains No water and will not raise the grain, harm veneers or remove the natural patina of the wood. You Will Be Surprised At The Number Of Pieces That Don't Need Stripping.
Wood Cleaner & Wax Remover will gently clean and prepare old & antique furniture and other wood surfaces for refinishing or polishing. If the finish is intact try WFS Wood Cleaner first to clean all furniture and wood surfaces. Wood Cleaner will not remove the original lacquer, varnish, shellac, or French polish finish.
