Kitchen counter oil

Sanded, more or less lightly.


First layer tung oil. Pity the shine vanishes the moment the wood has absorbed the oil. Only after many layers the shine stays.

What a pity, it did not "hold". Apparently the previous owner did not use oil but some teak varnish or something, not oil. Dickhead. Some heavy sanding to gt it all off is in order. Not a great job, this is iroco wood, and very tough.



This is the fourth(!) treatment. Not layer. Oil does not really build up in layers. It sinks into the wood. Another layer tomorrow.

And the sink was put in place first, only then the counter top was treated. Under the rim just silicone. Because, what you don't see does not matter. Sigh.
