It’s indeed buffing compound. More specifically— for as long as I’ve known— this excellent stuff from Germany (showing 20 years of age here) 0D349529-526B-4D52-960F-362F5C89C0A0.jpeg

Just great to have your input on these forums.

The little tidbits are invaluable


Thank you sir

As they should
Thank you so much, Paul! I was thinking of you late last night after I'd already shut down the 'puter. Wasn't sure if you still had your antenna up , nice to hear from you. :)
I like to use a lot of lube but that much grease around a tiny truss rod nut would be redonculous.

Also to note, excessive use of oil around the tuners is reputed to rot wood, so excessive greasing would not be recommended at all.

It's as Ralf said, polishing compound, as common as belly button lint ;]
I don't see how it could rot it, but I could see it causing the to wood to swell a little, and might take a long time to equalize again.
