Hi All,
Next job on the DIY list is to attempt to revive and protect our wooden kitchen worktop which is in a bit of a state. I'm not sure it's ever had a protective coat on it (we only move din 18 months ago) so it's quite badly marked in places. I've included some photos below which show the various black marks and water marks around the sink.
Fisrt job is to sand it back as best we can to remove the top surface, fill any cracks with wood filler then we're proposing to either stain and oil or use a darker oil that will hopefully do both of those jobs.
Does anyone have any suggestions for appropriate products/stains/oils to do this? I've had Danish or Tung oil suggested as options, would these be suitable?
We have a fairly light solid oak floor (you can see it in one of the pics below) so don't want to go too dark but at the same time the darker the stain/oil the better the marks will be disguised.
Any material/technique suggestions gratefully received!
Thanks
