Mineral Oil Ikea Countertop. Approved for use on surfaces where food is prepared. I tried oiling with mineral oil, however, all my children's papers, homework, mail, now have oil stains.
Ikea Karlby desk is a gorgeous, cheap and solid countertop which has a very rich texture and looks stunning in your home. We just purchased Numerar Countertops from IKEA. Wipe off surplus oil with a cloth or kitchen paper.
The oil to use on a butcher block countertop is the same oil you should use to maintain a wood cutting board.
Anyone have thoughts on the BEST method to get a good color but also seal and protect? hi stephanie, i am getting butcher block from ikea or meandrous for my kitchen and want to use mineral oil as well but want the countertops to be a nice deep oak, but i heard ikea birch is better than oak and also heard not to stain. what kind of wood do you have and are you still happy? if birch, has it darkened? feel free to send a photo, thank in advance!
Butcher block surfaces and cutting boards are both wood and their needs are the same. I tried oiling with mineral oil, however, all my children's papers, homework, mail, now have oil stains. I tried both Waterlox and mineral oil and am sharing what worked best for me!
