Howard Products BBB012 Cutting Board Oil, 12 oz

This product works great, absorbs like it should and last long.

If you have nice wooden cutting boards or other kitchen accessories, one of the items you need to have on hand to prevent wear and cracking of those items is food grade mineral oil. I picked up a bottle of Howard BBB012 Cutting Board Oil a few weeks ago to treat our new pizza peel and it works great. Application is very straight forward... simply apply the oil directly to the wooden surface and then wipe with the grain using a soft cotton towel (Ive found that paper towels work pretty well in a pinch as well). After application let rest for 20+ minutes and then wipe clean to pick up any additional residue. If the surface is really dried out, or youre applying for the first time, it may be wise to repeat several times to really get a good seal. The result is a beautiful luster when you are done, almost as if you have applied a stain. Rich colors and the detailed grain patterns emerge. There isnt too much to say about the performance, its an oil, so it will make a mess if youre not careful. I recommend putting on less than you think you need. You can always apply more if its not enough! If you have nice pieces, its definitely worth a few dollars to keep them looking nice and ensuring that they will be around for a long time to come. We only have a few wooden cutting boards and this new wooden pizza peel (also from Amazon, see my other reviews), and I think this 12oz bottle will last at least a couple years, maybe longer. **Be sure that you NEVER run your wooden cutting board (or any nice wooden cookware for that matter) through the dishwasher. Always hand wash**

Picked up a large and cheap round cutting board at a certain Lobby for Hobbies that needed a little something extra to make it look its best. This brand was highly rated and worked great! Put a coat on and let it sit for an hour, and then a second overnight. The board looks great and doesnt feel oily at all.

Worked very well. Oil is absorbed fully

I used this oil after I sanded down a 40-year-old artisan-made cutting board, and now it looks like new. It revitalized the surface and will keep wood looking at its best if used consistently. I also used it on a wooden ladle and some wooden knife handles. Everything is brought back to life. As with any oil, be prepared to wash your hands well, and also the outside of the bottle before putting it away. When you work with oil, it gets EVERYWHERE.

I have purchased this multiple times and love the product, but I was disappointed when I receive this one and it the bottle was sealed but didnt have an actual lid on it. Thankfully, I had an extra lid to use, if not it would have been a mess trying to keep it from spilling and would have been impossible to store.

Would order from seller again

Used to oil a new cutting board. Dont have a before pic, but the color of the wood and the grain looks much better than original. Took a few coats but thats to be expected.

I got this product because my wife and bought for me a beautiful cutting board made of different types of wood. We have other items that I have oiled with olive oil. I wanted this oil because of its ultimate safety in using. While it darkens the wood, it is much less than olive oil. Used on my new cutting board and one made special for me by my neighbor, a bread cutting item my neighbor made with thin wood slats in a wood tray that catches crumbs below where you cut, custom made wooden spoons and spatulas. Most of this had never been oiled so the first coat was sucked right up. Even after second coat I let items sit to dry and hardly any oil was left on surface.

I have a cutting board that came with the sink and is fitted to the sink and also holds a strainer/calendar. Not easy to replace , through neglect and improper care it had dried out and the pieces came unglued. I had used olive oil and vegetable oils which didn’t nourish the wood only gummed it up. After cleaning everything up and gluing back together I started using the Howard Cutting Board Oil and the different is night and day. The Howard product is soaking in very nicely and nourishing the board so it does not dry out. Not shrinking or cracking now. So glad I picked this oil. PS it’s a very oily not too thick but not too thin either , absorbed by wood readily.
