Wood Care Products Overview
Jarhead Wood Care Products will protect and beautify all of your wooden treasures. We have spent considerable time testing and developing our products to ensure they will not cause damage or or reverse staining of your wood belongings. The materials are acquired through American businesses and often from small companies that specialize in natural and organically produced where possible.
Jarhead Wood Wax
This is our finishing product that started us in the wood care product line. It can be used on virtually any wood surface not just reserved for Cutting Boards.
Ingredients
We start by using Food Grade Mineral Oil and coconut oil to soak into the wood grain which also provides natural antibacterial properties. Next we melt and combine organic beeswax giving the wood an additional layer of protection against stains and bacteria. We finish it off with Vitamin E and Lemon Peel Extract, this gives your board a fresh scent and helps to fight off bacteria. Lastly because I am naming this product line Jarhead in honor of the Marine Corps; I had to ensure it included the tiniest amount of yellow crayon in it (don’t worry it is completely non-toxic and non-staining) which is actually made from paraffin wax.
Proper Use
Perfectly designed for new and old cutting boards. Apply a generous amount ensuring to coat all sides of your wood surfaces. Allow it to penetrate for 2-4 hours and use additional coats if it is absorbed quickly into the wood surface. The oil will soak into the wood, if the board feels wet after a couple hours, use a dry cloth to wipe off any excess. Lastly add a coat of a good food safe wood wax like the Jarhead Wood Wax.
Safe to use on: Butcher Blocks, wood cutting boards (especially bamboo), wood countertops, wood Bar tops and wooden serving trays. It would not be recommended to use on wooden utensils due to the amount of wax in this product, for those you should use the Jarhead Wood Paste or Jarhead Wood Oil only.
