Best way to remove laquer from between frets?

[Monckyman]

Hello all.
I have an SX Jazz neck that I really like the feel of but the Khaki coloured laquer is putting me off putting it on a bass I want to use live.
So, I`ve already rubbed down a bit of the head and neck and it`s a nice Maple under all that laquer.
But, I`m worried about how effectivelt I can remove the stuff on the actual fretboard.
Woud I be right in thinking a purpose made block for wrapping sandpaper aruond might suit best?
Ideas gratefully received.

If sanding proves tricky I'd try a sharp scalpel, and perhaps some heat?

Those guys over at talkbass had a thread about some orange stripper that works really well on SX necks. Citristrip? Or something like that. have a look over there, and see if youc an get it over here.

Just to get you started, unless you're going through the poly as well, in which case, good luck with that.

Ta Dave.
Good thread, but unfortunately I can`t find Citristip in the UK so I may go for a Nitromoors type gel.
