My piggyback question. The mineral oil/beeswax combo can be recommended regardless of situation for basically any wood board situation, right?



I was wondering the same thing about heat. I don't know if it helps the mineral oil, but I could see a scenario where heat perhaps improves the wax coating.
A poster had a similar question but dude said once it was 'dry' it did not ooze oil,
