Oil: Our special oil formula is perfect for cutting and food prep areas. It absorbs into the wood, conditioning it to repel moisture. Easy to reapply as often as needed without sanding, this no-hassle finish keeps the wood looking fresh in functional kitchens and provides a matte finish.
Pro tip: An oil finish means the wood grain is more exposed to nicks and scratches, but this allows for easy repair sanding and quick touch-ups. Great for heavy-use islands where the marks of use lend to the warmth of the home like historic butcher blocks.
Polyurethane Finish: We use a top-of–the-line polyurethane to finish the countertop, creating a protective barrier around the wood. This option is more practical around sinks and high moisture areas. This semi-gloss finish will best maintain the initial factory look and will last for years to come.
Pro tip: A polyurethane finish is more durable than an oil finish. The life of polyurethane can vary depending on use, but to refinish the wood requires full sanding and removal of the finish. Great for moist areas and lower-maintenance applications. Cannot be used as a cutting surface.
Unfinished: Unfinished islands and countertops are ideal if you have a very specific finish or stain in mind you want to use and apply yourself. They are also ideal if you plan to cut your countertops to size to better fit the area you are putting them.
Caution: We are unable to warranty any modifications made to a countertop or island including finishes and cuts. We suggest you have a professional contractor cut and install countertops and islands.
