Remove safety seal. Shake gently before using. Apply with a clean soft cloth. Let stand at least 20 minutes. Wipe off any excess with a clean cloth. Apply additional coats whenever the wood looks or feels dry. For thick wood surfaces like butcher blocks, apply at least 2 coats. Apply to all sides of the wood surface for even penetration of the oil into the wood and to thoroughly condition all surfaces.
For best results, Howard recommends seasoning wood with Howard Cutting Board Oil prior to conditioning with Butcher Block Conditioner.
