how many coats of watco butcher block finish on butcher block
Cutting Board Finish Revisited All the boards were ultimately sanded with 220 and finished with 2 coats of WATCO butcherblock oil and finish on all surfaces. I used one of the boards, gave it a light wash, rinsed it and dried it. After this the top of the board looks dull and the the top is now rough to the touch.
