How do I maintain and prolong the life of my cutting board?

It is extremely important to give your cutting board a good oiling on all surfaces every 3-4 weeks. Your Boos Board shipped from the factory with a penetrating oil finish which allows for great cutting, chopping, and slicing. We recommend keeping the board oiled with John Boos Mystery Oil or a natural mineral oil. When the cutting board becomes dry and lighter in color, you know that the time has come to re-oil your board. With a minimum amount of care and maintenance, you can lengthen the life of your Boos Board by many years.
