FAQs
How often should I condition my chopping board?
For active use, conditioning every 1-3 months is recommended, or whenever the wood appears dry or water starts to soak in rather than bead on the surface.
Can I use this on bamboo chopping boards?
This conditioner is best suited for solid wood. While it may offer some benefit to bamboo, results can vary. It's primarily formulated for traditional wood types.
Is this conditioner safe for children's wooden toys?
Yes, the formula is free from harsh chemicals and solvents, making it safe for items that may come into contact with children.
Will this conditioner change the color of my wood?
It will enhance the natural color and grain of the wood, often making it appear slightly richer or darker due to the oil content. It does not contain artificial dyes.
How long does the lemon scent last?
The scent is present during application and for a short period after. It is designed to be refreshing and does not linger strongly on the wood.
What is the shelf life of the product?
Stored in a cool, dry place, the product typically maintains its efficacy for at least two years.
Troubleshooting
Wood appears slightly sticky after application.
This usually means too much product was applied or it wasn't buffed off sufficiently. Use a clean, dry cloth to buff the surface more vigorously.
Wood still looks dry or absorbs water quickly.
The wood may be very dry and require a second application. Apply more conditioner, allow it to soak longer, and then buff thoroughly.
Uneven sheen on the wood surface.
Ensure the product was applied evenly and that all excess was buffed off uniformly. Apply a very light second coat if necessary and buff again.
