Watco Butcher Block Oil & Finish

I used this to seal a raw wood butcher block for a kitchen counter setup. I put a banana in the picture for scale, which is the only food I'd recommend putting near this wood until the finish is fully cured! Unlike standard mineral oil that washes away with dish soap after a few weeks, this actually contains resins that harden inside the wood fibers to create a long-lasting, water-resistant seal.WHY IT WORKS WELL:• The wipe-on application is completely foolproof. You just wipe it on with a lint-free cloth, let it soak, and wipe off the excess.• It leaves a beautiful, rich satin sheen that brings out the natural grain of the wood far better than basic oils.THE CATCH:• Because this is an actual finish and not just an oil, it has a strong solvent smell when applying. More importantly, while it dries to the touch in a few hours, you absolutely must wait the full 72 hours for it to completely cure before it is officially "food safe" for chopping or food prep.THE BOTTOM LINE:An excellent, highly durable finish for wood countertops and cutting boards, as long as you strictly follow the 72-hour curing rule.

Used this on a new butcher block top I purchased! Turned out pretty

Perfect

Gos on good looks good and not bad clean-up

provided a decent surface

This was recommended from one of my laser sites. Very impressed.Sealed in the wood beautifully and made the design pop

The oil worked and sealed as advertised. Coverage is very good but It’s a little thinner than I expected so a little went a long way. I had to do a couple coats, probably because of the type of wood the butcher block was. Has held up very well

Great butcher block finish

It colourless, dries fast and easy to apply. It dries quickly in the tin so better to change the container once you open it. Bought is twice already

the package arrived in good conation and this product is food grade

Only one item included!

Descubrir Watco 241758 Butcher Block Oil & Finish ha sido una revelación para el tratamiento de mi escritorio. En mi búsqueda de un acabado no tóxico de alta calidad, este producto destacó notoriamente. A pesar de su precio, la cobertura uniforme y la facilidad de aplicación justifican la inversión.Es importante destacar que no es un barniz de poliuretano, por lo que no crea una capa brillante y protectora, sino que ofrece un acabado más mate que realza la belleza natural de la madera, destacando su veta y proporcionando un aspecto fino y elegante. La no toxicidad es un enorme plus, dándome tranquilidad en el uso diario.La característica que más valoro es que permite que la madera 'respire' y asegura que con el tiempo no se formarán grietas ni descascarillados. Ya era admirador de los aceites daneses y los selladores Rostoleum, pero Watco ha añadido un nuevo nivel de acabado natural a mi repertorio. Para aquellos que prefieran métodos aún más naturales, podrían optar por aceite de tung puro, pero la comodidad y el menor tiempo de secado de Watco, junto con la eliminación de pasos adicionales, hacen que el precio sea absolutamente razonable. ¡Cinco estrellas merecidas por este excepcional producto!

Excellent Product
