Question 1

Can you use it to seal and protected painted wood, e.g. painted salad bowl?

Accepted Answer

i am no expert, but i am guessing the answer to your question is no. i bought this product because i had watched many videos on you tube about making cutting boards, as i wanted to start making them myself, and in most of them the final thing that is done is putting this oil over  all the surfaces and leaving approx 30min and then wipe off any left, and leave to dry and then buff surfaces to get a good finish.  this is a special oil that lubricates the wood and also brings out the grain and colour of the wood
        as this oil soaks into the wood and lubricates the wood and stops it cracking, and is safe for use with food, that is why i do not think this is the right product for you
       i find you tube very helpful if i want to find out how to do something, so i would suggest you go onto you tube and type in your quetion, and i think you will probable be amazed at how many vid there are on the subject.
           hope this info is helpful.

Question 2

Can you use as pre-stain conditioner?

Accepted Answer

I am not sure. As it is food safe is you stain food safe?

Question 3

Does the conditioner protect the wood from water damage?

Accepted Answer

Hi Anca,
Thank you for your question
The penetrating quality of food-grade mineral oil along with the water-resistant traits of beeswax and carnauba wax helps to rejuvenate the wood, prevent drying, and even repair knife marks in the wood  however you will  need to continue to re apply the conditioner  to keep boards protected 
Sta safe

Question 4

Hi can I use that item as a pre stain conditionar before to wax a bare pine table top? Thanks

Accepted Answer

Hi, if the pine is to be used in contact with food the you can use Butcher Block Conditioner.  If it not food related you can use Feed-n-Wax on it's own or Citrus Shield neutral or with a colour tint eg golden Oak again on i's own, no need to pre condition or follow up.
Hope this helps
Anna
