A well-made cutting board deserves proper care. Reynolds Board Oil is a lightweight, food-grade mineral oil formulated for unfinished wooden kitchenware, including cutting boards, butcher blocks, utensils, serving boards, and bowls.

The oil penetrates the wood grain, restoring a richer appearance to boards that look pale or dry. Use it regularly as the foundation of your board-care routine, then follow with Reynolds Revive Board Conditioner for a smooth beeswax finish.

Ideal for:

End-grain and side-grain cutting boards
Butcher blocks
Charcuterie and serving boards
Wooden spoons and utensils
Unfinished wooden bowls

How to apply

Make sure the wood is clean and completely dry.
Apply Board Oil generously across the surface.
Spread it evenly with a clean, lint-free cloth.
Allow the oil to absorb for several hours or overnight.
Wipe away any remaining excess.
Repeat if the wood still absorbs the oil quickly or appears dry.

For a complete treatment, finish with Reynolds Revive Board Conditioner after the oil has absorbed.
