Question 1

Is this product dishwasher safe?

Accepted Answer

Hi, I actually work for Tried + True and no wood should be put in the dishwasher, regardless of the finish.  This would not be considered a dishwasher safe finish as it is water resistant, not waterproof, and the harsh chemicals can actually dissolve the cured finish after time.  Wash with mild, natural soap and warm water.

Question 2

Can you apply indoors?  Looking for a protective finish for our wood table.  Will need to apply it indoors & there are kids at home. Any toxic smell?

Accepted Answer

This stuff is none-toxic, zero VOC's, 100% food safe, and no heavy metal driers.   It smells like a cooking oil and is a simple to use.  Absolutely it can be applied indoors and safe around children.  It is wonderful stuff for all the above reasons but won't give you a hard table top finish like varnish or polyurethane finishes.  I hope this helps.

Question 3

I have some 1970's built cedar kitchen cabinets  needing  revitalization.  Will this work overtop of an existing possible minwax satin type finish?

Accepted Answer

I would sand off the existing satin finish before applying the Tried and True. You want it to be able to soak into the wood.

Question 4

Does the odor that many described ever totally dissipate?  I don't want a permanent odor in the room

Accepted Answer

Not only does it dissipate quickly, it's very pleasant when it is apparent.  I am such a fan of this oil finish that I love smelling it, so I re-do my banisters periodically to keep them smelling new.  I've never had anyone comment on an odor/frangrance, so I don't believe it's because I've gotten used to it.  Enjoy!!
