Finishing Choices
If your butcher block will not be used for any food preparation, conversion varnish is the recommended choice.
Unfinished: Apply the finish of your choice. All butcher blocks must be sealed and finished. There are many choices available from your local paint store, online and various other outlets. The butcher block you will receive will be fully sanded. Light sanding may still be required before and between coats of finish. You can also stain your butcher block countertop prior to finishing. If you will be preparing food directly on the block, please check the label or with the finish manufacturer to determine if it is food safe. Most stains are not food safe.
Mineral Oil: Two coats of a food safe mineral oil are applied to all surfaces. After you receive your butcher block, you should apply one coat of mineral oil to the top surface daily for one week, and monthly thereafter. You should also apply one coat of mineral oil to the sides, edges and any exposed areas underneath on this same schedule. Frequency of application can vary, but it is important to keep the butcher block well oiled. Food safe mineral oil is available at most drug stores. This is appropriate if the butcher block may be used for food preparation.
Conversion Varnish: Three coats of our 45 sheen, catalyzed, commercial grade conversion varnish are applied to the top surface. Our conversion varnish contains acrylic for extra durability. Two coats are applied to all other surfaces. This is not appropriate if the butcher block may be used for food preparation.
Why choose Sappy Walnut for a butcher block countertop?
Sappy Walnut is still American Walnut but it has a larger proportion of sapwood than regular walnut. The contrast between the lighter sapwood and the darker heartwood gives your butcher block a unique eye catching look. It has plenty of color variation and is still durable enough for everyday kitchen use.
How durable is Sappy Walnut as a butcher block compared to other types of wood?
Sappy Walnut is definitely durable enough for a butcher block countertop. The higher amount of sapwood does not affect the strength. While it is not quite as hard as maple and some other types of wood, it still holds up well to normal kitchen use and provides a sturdy and reliable work surface.
What finishing options are recommended for Sappy Walnut butcher block countertops?
For a Sappy Walnut butcher block countertop, you can choose from different finishing options depending on the intended use. Leave it unfinished if you want to apply your own finish on site. If you will be preparing food directly on the countertop, a natural mineral oil finish is a good choice. For something more durable and lower maintenance, our conversion varnish provides strong protection and a nice semi gloss look.
Can I customize a Sappy Walnut butcher block countertop?
You can fully customize a Sappy Walnut butcher block to fit your needs. You can choose the thickness, width and length, as well as the edge profile that works best for your space.
