Board Care

Notes for General Use:

  • NEVER put your board in the dishwasher
  • NEVER submerge or ‘soak’ a board in water
  • Use lukewarm water and a mild soap to clean
  • Use our board butter for best results if your board needs a refresh

But most importantly… USE IT!

Many people never get the experience of using their boards because they’re afraid to ‘ruin’ them. Don’t be afraid! Give it character so your board can tell a story.

​Avoid acidic foods. These strip away the finish faster than regular use.

​If your board becomes dry, or you want to refinish it, we recommend a food-safe blend of wax and oil. We sell our own refinishing kits, our own Board Butter – it will blend better with the remaining finish on the board.

Refinishing

Refinishing Directions

  1. Clean board with mild soap and hot water
  2. Dry Well
  3. Reapply food-safe oil and wax finish
  4. Wait 3-5 minutes
  5. Repeat if desired
  6. Wipe away excess finish with a soft cloth
  7. Polish if desired

Extreme Damage

​If your board experiences a horrific accident, DON’T PANIC!

(If you found your way to this page, it’s probably too late to prevent that)

​After you compose yourself, you can ship it back to us and we will gladly restore it for a small fee.

​Just contact us at info@cnwoodworking.com.au for that process if you want to know more information.
