Location: SoCal		I would wait until it arrives to see what you are up against.
Sometimes, an alcohol swab works, other times, fretboard oil.
Stubborn stuff requires lighter fluid, Goof Off, WD40. The neck of my Academy is glossed. I don't think any of this stuff will hurt it in moderation. Just clean off the solvent when you are done.
