Finishing Choices

If your butcher block will not be used for any food preparation, conversion varnish is the recommended choice.

Unfinished: Apply the finish of your choice. All butcher blocks must be sealed and finished. There are many choices available from your local paint store, online and various other outlets. The butcher block you will receive will be fully sanded. Light sanding may still be required before and between coats of finish. You can also stain your butcher block countertop prior to finishing. If you will be preparing food directly on the block, please check the label or with the finish manufacturer to determine if it is food safe. Most stains are not food safe.

Mineral Oil: Two coats of a food safe mineral oil are applied to all surfaces. After you receive your butcher block, you should apply one coat of mineral oil to the top surface daily for one week, and monthly thereafter. You should also apply one coat of mineral oil to the sides, edges and any exposed areas underneath on this same schedule. Frequency of application can vary, but it is important to keep the butcher block well oiled. Food safe mineral oil is available at most drug stores. This is appropriate if the butcher block may be used for food preparation.

Conversion Varnish: Three coats of our 45 sheen, catalyzed, commercial grade conversion varnish are applied to the top surface. Our conversion varnish contains acrylic for extra durability. Two coats are applied to all other surfaces. This is not appropriate if the butcher block may be used for food preparation.


FAQ - American Cherry Butcher Block Countertops

1. Why choose American Cherry for my butcher block countertop?
American Cherry is a premium hardwood known for its rich, reddish-brown tones that deepen and mature over time, while the sapwood remains light, creating a warm and elegant look. Its smooth grain patterns and natural luster make it a standout choice for any kitchen. American Cherry butcher block countertops balance beauty and functionality, offering a surface that complements both modern and traditional designs. Its timeless charm adds sophistication and value to your space.

2. Is American Cherry a durable wood for butcher block countertops?
Yes, American Cherry is a durable hardwood that performs well for butcher block countertops. While slightly softer than woods like maple or hickory, it provides sufficient strength for most kitchen applications. Its moderate density helps it resist wear and scratches with proper care, and its smooth surface is gentle on knives. American Cherry’s combination of practicality and visual appeal makes it a top option for creating a stylish and functional workspace. American cherry has a rating of 950 on the Janka Hardness Scale.

3. What is the best finish for American Cherry countertops?
For American Cherry butcher block countertops, acrylic conversion varnish is an excellent choice for showcasing the wood’s deep, rich tones while providing superior moisture resistance. This finish enhances the natural beauty of Cherry, making it ideal for kitchens and workspaces. If you plan to prepare food directly on the countertop, a mineral oil finish is the best option. This food-safe finish protects the wood while maintaining its natural appearance, though it requires regular reapplication to keep the surface conditioned.
