Care & Maintenance
- Hand-wash with mild soap and warm water; never soak or put in dishwasher.
- Dry thoroughly, then re-oil every 3–4 weeks—or whenever the wood looks dry.
- Use Boos Block Mystery Oil followed by Board Cream for optimal protection.
- Light sanding (220-grit) can refresh the surface before oiling if heavy knife marks appear.
Proper upkeep preserves the block’s integrity and extends its lifetime warranty.
