To each his own ,
However when I wanna clean a stock but try and leave any of the original finish I clean it with of all things Hoppe's #9 and a soft cloth . After wiping off all the residue I can I then dry it a bit with a blow dryer let it sit a couple hours and then put a coat or two of Bowling Alley Wax or Johnson'S Paste Wax and the wood and buff it by hand with a CLEAN soft cloth .
