The Ultimate Guide to Wood and Stainless Steel Care

Caring for your kitchen surfaces is essential to maintaining their longevity, functionality, and aesthetic appeal. From butcher blocks to cutting boards and stainless steel appliances, each material requires a specific cleaning and maintenance routine to stay in top shape. In this guide, we'll explore how to effectively care for both wood and stainless steel surfaces using Howard Products' premium solutions.

Wood Surface Care

Wooden surfaces, such as butcher blocks and cutting boards, are prone to cracking, drying, and absorbing bacteria if not properly maintained. By incorporating a regular cleaning and conditioning routine, you can keep your wood surfaces looking beautiful and safe for food preparation.

1. Clean Your Cutting Board

Start by cleaning your cutting board with a gentle yet effective cleaner like the Cutting Board Cleaner. This cleaner removes stains, odours, and food particles, leaving your board fresh and hygienic.

2. Condition and Protect

After cleaning, it's important to nourish your wood surfaces to prevent cracking and dryness. Apply Cutting Board Oil regularly to restore moisture and maintain a smooth surface. For deeper protection, use the Butcher Block Conditioner, which provides extra conditioning and helps seal the wood.

3. Convenient Duo for Small Surfaces

For smaller surfaces or quick touch-ups, the Cutting Board Oil & Butcher Block Conditioner Duo offers the perfect combination of convenience and effectiveness. Keep your surfaces nourished without hassle!

4. Finish with Wax for Extra Protection

To give your wood surfaces a durable, natural finish, use Wax-It-All 255gm. This all-purpose wax provides a protective coating that’s safe for wood and other surfaces.

Stainless Steel Surface Care

Stainless steel is popular in kitchens due to its sleek look and resistance to corrosion. However, it is prone to fingerprints, smudges, and streaks, which can detract from its polished finish. Proper care will ensure your stainless steel appliances stay gleaming and functional.

1. Cleaning Stainless Steel

For streak-free shine and long-lasting protection, use the Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish. This product not only cleans but also polishes your stainless steel, preventing smudges and fingerprints.

2. Regular Maintenance

To maintain the shine of your stainless steel appliances, incorporate regular polishing into your routine. This helps protect the surface from environmental damage and ensures it stays looking new for longer.
