Contrary to its name, teak oil in fact does not actually contain any oils or reminiscent of the teak tree. Many products are referred to as “teak oil” because they are marketed for use on teak and other similar timbers. Teak oils’ composition may vary but it is most often based upon a mixture of linseed oil, varnish, and mineral spirits. Many types of teak oil provide a good protective barrier for wooden worktops, but will often create a glossy sheet that – in our opinion – does not accentuate the beauty of hardwood timber worktop and looks artificial. Pure linseed oil can penetrate the timber worktop better than any other natural oil hence it is quite suitable in the treatment of hardwood worktops. Although it is excellent in penetrating the pores, the process can take some time. After it has penetrated, the rub-in oils will naturally dry and seal the worktop pores to form a very even and perfect surface. These oils provide the base for many popular worktop oils, but with the addition of extra salts and added chemicals to help the curing process. The infamous Danish Oil is one of them. Provides some protection against moisture and water, ideal for chopping boards, but it is still recommend to avoid high humidity Here are is a comprehensive comparison of all solid wood worktop oils often recommended for treatment of timber products: 1.

tough and when planed and dressed it produces a very smooth surface for furniture and polishes well, Acacia wood ranges from very pale pink/yellow through to a light honey colour, and light silver bands Requires multiple coatings to build up the protective barrier (Note: this is rather easy and pleasant activity). Olive Oil is most commonly used in the treatment of wooden surfaces, more specifically wooden chopping boards. Although it has the ability to highlight the natural colors of the timber, when it comes to wooden worktops it remains insufficient in providing the sufficient protection. When it comes to wooden worktops, unveiling the true grain character of the timber is insufficient, an oil’s primary duty is to ensure the wood worktop is protected from moisture, aggressive stains and physical damage.
