Cue Oil
Q: How do you keep your cue in good condition?
A: Mike Wooldridge Cue Oil.
Let’s be clear about one thing – you can use many oils/waxes/potions on your cue and if you’re happy with the result, then that’s fine.
This oil is my own little secret recipe. Don’t ask what’s in it because I won’t tell you!

Key Features
- Unique 'secret' formula
- Feeds and protects the cue
- Builds natural shine
- Easy to use
Applications
- Use as maintenance for previously oil finished cues.
- Use as a finish over bare wood if you have sanded all the old finish off your cue.
- Do not use on lacquered or varnished cues. It is a waste of time because it cannot soak into the wood and work properly.
Instructions
- Apply liberally over whole cue, shaft and butt, rubbing well into the grain.
- Use plenty of oil to be sure the wood is well covered.
- Wipe off excess oil with a soft cloth.
- Leave to dry overnight, preferably 24-48 hours
- Buff with a clean soft cloth, and continue buffing regularly during play as it takes time for an oil finish to fully cure.
Soon, your cue will develop a wonderful deep shine and feel super smooth in your hands.
Note
- You cannot harm a cue by over-oiling.
- Repeat as often as you want as the wood will only take what it needs.
Important
- Do not forget to remove any excess oil as it may dry on the cue surface and leave a sticky hard mess that is difficult to remove. Better to build the finish slowly over time using thin coats.
