See 2012 Special Collection NENA finish? and note that this applies to all of the NENA finishes.

I just use a water damp cloth to clean the body and back of the neck, and then a soft dry cloth to complete the care on my 2012 ASAT Classic 'S'.

Hope this helps.

tru-oil is a hard finish itself, you would not want to out that on any other finish. it's not porous, and you definitely want to have a humidifier going.
