I recently made 10 cutting boards and finished them with Walrus Oil. I used sapele and maple.
Last night we cut tomatoes on one of the boards. Left the juice on the board until after dinner cleanup. When the cutting board was cleaned it has a stain from the tomato juice.
I gave 7 of the boards away. I am now really concerned about using the boards with raw meat. I am going to tell everyone not to use the boards until I figure this out.
Is this just a matter of not enough coats or something else. I used two coats and allowed it to dry for 24 hours between coats. It did not absorb all the oil and I figured it would not be of any benefit to add addition coats. Am I wrong?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
