Can this board be sanded to refinish the surface after wear?

Hello Marina,Yes the cutting board can be sanded as it is a solid piece of wood. I would probably use a fine grit sand paper like 120, whether you hand sand or use a palm, or orbital sander.

Definitely before. Sanding will aid in pieces fitting well together. I recommend fine sandpaper with a gentle stroke. This wood is almost like cardboard. This furniture has incredible potential, but only for one with patient hands. Success is found in the one doing the work, not the product. Meaning the product is only as good as the user. Good luck. This stuff is cute if assemblied properly.

You could paint. Or better to sand lightly, remove dust w tack cloth & stain&varnish.

I wouldn't use it for that. It can be used, but you are asking a small sander to do a big job. You would most likely wear out the back plate on the sander if not burn it out. Of course I do not know how big your deck is, or what condition it is in. Most people do not sand their wooden decks if they are worn. There are restorers you can buy to restore the deck. Or you you can get deck cleaners that with the use of a power washer can bring the wood back to a like new appearance, from that dull grey worn look. Once that is done you can apply sealers. But to use a palm orbital sander to sand down the entire deck, would be time consuming, and tough on the sander. I would not do it. I wouldn't use it for that.

The tutorial I used specified NO sanding (we applied the poly with an old sock). My husband sanded after the second coat of the poly just because the directions on the can said to and you could see tiny scratches in the finish. I'm not sure if it will raise the wood, though.

I would say yes, however it would need to be sanded. I actually love the color and love the stool so much, I just ordered my 5th one. I have them strategically placed all around my house.

I have this block, If I had Black stains on it I would take some Fine sand paper and see if I couldn't buff it out. Then wipe it down and re-oil. Never use water on your board Just a lightly dampened cloth.

I have not used it but when the guys who invented this were on Shark Tank they assured the Sharks that it could be sanded and painted. Hope this helps. Linda B.

It will repair it but leaves a rough finish unless you can sand and polish.Colour match could be difficult.

I would say yes that should work fine. The pressure washing will remove all the dirt and probably some of the original stain too. That will prepare the surface for the restore product. Just make sure to let your deck dry for a few days before applying restore and dry again for a few days after application. You can add water to the restore as needed and use a standard paint roller. They suggest buying the same color in the restore stain and applying that between the boards before starting.

I would think so. I went over a stained and finished bedroom set. No sanding required. Sanding left scratch marks in the finish which showed through the gel stain.

Yes, but like any other marine varnish it will need to be sanded lightly and recoated every year or two.

OK to cut it off. Round off the edges as before and finish with the type of finish they talk about. Sanding the whole surface might be good. After a few months the edges of the glued pieces can be felt. I used the top for a kitchen island. Worked great. I used it uncut.

Yes but you will have to paint/stain over. Product is can be sanded smooth.

Yes, if you are going to refinish anyway, this product won't harm the wood. Just lightly sand the surface, and this product will provide a temporary fix and protect the surface.

You certainly can. Only thing marine about it is the components inside, mainly the board, have a anticorrosion coating.
