Finish For Butcher Block Countertops. We sell the full line of Rubio Monocoat products and can include them with your butcher block order. Almost any pattern can be created by mixing different wood species.
Naturally they go from light to dark and you can pick up a butcher block countertop at the hardware store unfinished. I had friend ask me to build a 6x3 ft butcher block countertop out of soft maple. Be sure you are ready to finish your butcher block within 48 hours of removing the shrink wrap.
And 3 again I put three coats of varnish on my countertops.
Its easy to apply nontoxic and leaves a beautiful matte finish that fits into almost any home style. We generally recommend a natural oil finish for the butcher block tops we sell to homeowners due to the ease of application and maintenance. Tung oil really seeps into the wood and protects beautifully. While sanding and finishing always remember to.
