Acetone quickly removes oil based finishes including the French polish used by Parker. Most experienced Parker and vintage gun collectors urge simply cleaning the stock with a washcloth and dilute Dawn or other detergent to clean off the dirt and oil and then applying a wax. Some like Renaissance Wax, others Johnsons, others Meguires.
This is to maintain the existing good finish and should not be confused with establishing a finish.
