Protect and enhance your kitchen woodworking projects with Clapham’s Salad Bowl Finish, a food-safe blend designed for everyday use. Made in Canada by Clapham’s, this finish combines food-grade beeswax, carnauba wax, and mineral oil to nourish wood, protect it from moisture, and leave a soft, lustrous sheen.
Ideal for pieces that see frequent handling and washing, this finish brings out the natural colour, grain, and character of the wood while remaining safe for food contact.
What is this finish used for?
It’s suitable for salad bowls, butcher blocks, cutting boards, wooden spoons, kitchen countertops, and other wooden items used in food preparation and serving.
What kind of finish does it leave?
Clapham’s Salad Bowl Finish protects the wood while delivering a subtle, natural-looking sheen—not glossy, but rich and warm, with enhanced grain definition.
How do I apply it?
Apply a thin coat by hand using a cloth or paper towel. Drying time varies depending on temperature and humidity, but the piece can be used immediately. Once dry, buff lightly to bring up a soft shine.
How often should it be reapplied?
Reapply whenever the surface looks dry or dull to maintain protection and appearance.
