Default Cleaned up my stock with Murphy's soap, what next

I cleaned up the stock with murphy's today and a whole bunch of nasty junk came off. The gun has lightened significantly, though I think either I somehow removed finish with murphys, I didn't scrub just whiped, which would surprise me or that junk was covering up some places lacking finish.

Course, it could just mean I haven't gotten all the gunk off and am just afraid I am damaging the finish when I am not.

Anyway here are the picks, one side of the neck looks like it may still have oil in it, but other then that it is cleaning up nicely. If those light spots are places that don't have finish anymore, please advise on what I should do next.
