Can this be used OVER a few coats of food grade mineral oil?

By the way. You will love this item. I build cutting boards and this is the only finish I will ever use on them. Excellent!

I assume the item has been finished with mineral oil in the past. I would give it a good rub down with a fiber pad before applying the beeswax and there should be no problem. I use this for carved spoons and bowls. I have successfully applied after mineral oil using the method above.

I have not tried that but it should be no problem. Are you wanting to put the mineral oil on for a reason or has the item just been dressed with it in the past?

Technically I'm sure it could as the Clapham's ingredients list says that it is made out of an edible mineral oil (not sure how that is done) and beeswax. We have oak counterops throughout our kitchen and they came oiled with a food grade oil. We oil them up every six months or so with a product from Ikea that is made for their wood countertops. I think it might be tung oil or linseed oil, but anyway, after the oil has penetrated and dried, we then wax up the countertops with Clapham's Beeswax. Then every month or two be re-apply the Clapham's. It smells great (compared to the oil) and dries quickly. It does a fantastic job of keeping our countertops protected and looking top notch!

Yes Clapham's Beeswax for salad bowl and butcher blocks can be use over mineral oil. Do not use it if you have applied veg. or olive oil to your block without completely sanding these oils off. If you have already used the Mineral oil surface for food prep, I would suggest you sand the board then reoil, being sure the oil soaks in, then liberally applying the wax to all surfaces. Let it set for about an hour, then buff the surface. Re-wax whenever your block appears dry or if you add the mineral oil again.

I would recommend priming over it because it is oil based and contains mineral pigments.

Yes, you can. If you want to add a few drops of carrier oil such as mineral oil, almond oil or another carrier oil.

I have read that any basic oil would work but the fragrance additives etc. I would be more trusting of using mineral oil. I have used olive oil in the past as well but more expensive than mineral oil.

I don't see why not, I use Oil of Thieves in mine I clean it out ever so often with just a paper towel

Yes just use light spray or just keep your eyes on it and move the food around the natural oils will work

Not to my knowledge. BUT mineral oil does. That's was used when I was Vet Tech!

If you were to use the right oil I have no doubt it would help to a degree. Maybe Doterra purify or lemon.

Never tried it for that but it might work. It sure did the job in removing oil from concrete. I think it would be worth a try.

I use mineral oil from the pharmacy isle on all my wood cutting boards. Rub some into the wood with a paper towel on all sides and let it absorb and dry. After a while you will be able to see when the wood needs more.

Yes you can, but I'm not sure about the amount since these are very very concentrated oils. It would be best to Goggle for information

I don't think so. I don't recall seeing it in the ingredients and I stay away from products with mineral oil.

Yes. Clean it after applying mineral oil. Let the mineral oil stay on it for a couple hours and then lightly wash it.

After use for one coat, I rinsed the lambwool with mineral oil, kept it in a sandwich bag to keep it from drying and then reused it for the next coating. No problem.

Instructions say it can be used for oil,vinegar,lemon or lime juice. I would not try anything thicker.

JP - I'm sure you could, but I wouldn't. This machine is designed for easy clean up and the oil, once cooled can go back into it's original bottle or a bottle of your choosing. Hope this helps. C&KG;

Hello Joani. I mix it with almond oil but I suppose that any food grade oil would do.
