    finishing advice

    Agree with the posts above that it sounds like the beeswax is the issue and microcrystalline wax could work better. Brandon Bespoke [email protected]

    Best wood for heat resistance

    Thanks for the response Cabinetman, much appreciated. I agree re end grain being best for cutting boards and I'd told our team member that it was likely to do with it getting wet, but thought it an interesting point to ask re wood type all the same. Trevanion - bit harsh I'd say! We're new to...

    Best wood for heat resistance

    Finishing oil

    Can't say we've come across straw oil before and we produce wood finishing oils! As others have commented above it seems to be a translated version of danish oil. The Brandon Bespoke Team Brandon Bespoke Oils & Waxes Email: [email protected]

    Imperial vs Metric

    As a company we put everything in Metric but have recently thought we should put Imperial measures on the labels too as, like you say, many people have trouble visualising the amount even if they tend to work in metric. Brandon Bespoke Oils & Waxes Tel: (+44) 0125622 0471 Email...

    Reviewing Wood Wax and Oil Treatments - Brandon Bespoke

    Also just to clarify we are looking for reviewers for several of our wood treatment oils and wood treatment waxes (not just the Food Safe Mineral Oil) Hope that helps! Best The Brandon Bespoke team Brandon Bespoke Oils & Waxes [email protected]

    Reviewing Wood Wax and Oil Treatments - Brandon Bespoke

    Hi Lurker Thanks for the question. Liquid Paraffin is a term commonly used in relation to pharmacy/medical field and so is often used as a synonym for other pharmacy/medical treatments that do the same thing. As such we use Pure Mineral Oil to avoid confusion. Re the pricing, we're not really...
