Howard Products BBB012 Cutting Board Oil, 12 oz

I didnt know cutting board oil was actually a thing until I saw this. LOL It revived one of my old cutting boards to its original condition with a couple of coats and now I also use it on my other boards and wood utensils. Im going to try it on an old end table and see how that works. Definitely recommend.

The lid had a bit of a leak, so Ive kept the bottle in a zip lock bag, but it definitely does the job!

I got this to try on a cheap little cutting board I got from Daiso. The thing soaked up a ton of oil and has a slight sheen now. Since I got the board as a disposable little piece for herbs, I’m not going to waste anymore oil on it. I think two coats should be enough to give it some seal and prevent bacteria growth. My only quip is the sticker barcode label is smack dab right on top of the instructions. Granted the product usage is not exactly rocket science, it’s still shows a complete disregard for consumers. I can look up usage instructions online, but what if it’s someone who has issues using technology or don’t have internet access? The product is fine, which was why I didn’t deduct any stars, but it’s still an annoyance.

A large red oak in my yard fell during a furious storm, so I had some of the wood milled into lumber, which I use for cabinetry, as well as custom charcuterie boards. After planing and sanding, I apply several coats of Howard Products BBB012 Cutting Board Oil, followed by a couple of coats of the Howard conditioner. This leaves a great finish that is perfect (and safe) for a spread of meat, cheese and crackers when guests visit for a holiday party. Great stuff!

I read reviews on mineral oils for treating wood cutting boards . This was rated high . So I ordered it and am giving it a try . So far it’s ok !

Worked great. We got a new sink for our kitchen and it came with an inset cutting board. This thing looks like it hadnt seen any kind of oil in the finishing process at all. It was bone dry. I lost count of how many coats of oil it took, but it had to be 8 or so before it started to really look and feel like a usable cutting board. Ill have to do a regular routine of re-oiling until it hits some kind of stasis, but for now I have about half a bottle left, so Im good for a while. I touched up some wooden utensils while I was at it, and those took almost no oil, so this bottle should last a while for most folks. I was very uneasy initially about where to find the mineral oil I kept hearing I should use on wood because there seems to be more than one type of oil categorized as mineral oil and it wasnt clear to me if it was all food safe. I relied a lot on reviews to decide what to buy and have been very happy with my choice.

This was so easy to use. I used on wooden utensils and my wooden cutting boards, didn’t take much to renew my wood.

Excellent product

Worked very well. Oil is absorbed fully

Works well on bamboo cbs. Revitalizes wood color.
