Steve, it is great to have you on board her on Lumberjocks. I got a real education this morning. I was a Physics major and did not do well in Chemistry but I love to learn the chemical make up of products. it helps a lot in decision making for finishes.
I was disappointed when I Googled Tung Oil and got this entry on Sawmill Creek which said that the Formby's Tung oil that I just used last night has NO tun oil n it!! Also it says it is an interior finish and Tung Oil used on ships to waterproof has to be an exterior finish. right. So should I get Pure Tung Oil and then use Poly over it for durability?
Also, for cutting boards, have you ever heard of Behandla salad bowl finish made in Slovenia? If so, what do you think of it?
Thanks, Jim
