How to Mend a Wooden Cutting Board (5 Steps)
As soon as you notice cracks, fill them to prevent further splitting and to keep food residue out of your wooden cutting board. Epoxy will stand up to frequent washing and resist the oils and acids in food.
Things You'll Need
- Fine Steel Wool
- Clear Or Wood Epoxy
- Mineral Oil
- Paper Clip Or Stiff Wire
Instructions
-
Clear out the crack with a straightened paper clip or a stiff wire.
-
Clean the board and let it dry completely.
-
Fill the crack with clear or wood epoxy, mounding it up a little higher than the board's surface.
-
When the epoxy is cured, rub away excess with fine steel wool.
-
Rub your cutting board regularly with mineral oil to prevent drying. Do not use vegetable oil, which will turn rancid.
