will this oil help protect other unfinished wood such as pine or fir?

This product is specially formulated for use with cedar but can be used on redwood, teak or any other outdoor wood furniture.

Yes it will. But remember it is a natural oil not a sealer. Oils will have to be reapplied. More frequently. Personally I only use this product on my grow boxes.

It doesn't matter if it's sealed or not this wax is meant for finished and sealed woods and if you want you can use it on unfinished wood surfaces too but with the finished and sealed surfaces you just reapply this wax every 6 months or so to keep the wax on their and protecting the wood

I would not. It fills pours and strenghens weak wood some. It will not turn pine to oak. Most web sites recommend Mineral Oil only for Toxicity. Especially a cutting board where film finishes might be damaged and contaminate food. There is also a salad bowl finish product you might use.

It appears to have a very light finish, probably to inhibit the absorption of oils and other liquids by the wood.

Its not pure teak oil. I used it only on teak and it left a gummy residue. Probably ok for outdoor furniture.

I do not know the answer, but as far as I am concerned, the oil is too strong to use in such a manner. I would never attempt it. I will only replenish the cedar blocks I have, and will try in the future to soak other woods in the oil and then let them "dry out" before placing them in a closet or drawer. I recommend ALWAYS placing a protective cover between the item to be protected and the oil-treated wood.

This is a great product to stop spliting and checking on log ends. I would use another product like an oil based transparent varnish or polyurethane. If you want the more rustic look from sawmill or chainsaw milling, maybe a deck stain with sealer be best.

Yes it does. It's still important to protect it with a teak oil wood preservative once a year (best in the beginning of the summer season)

We are using it on maple. There is some oiliness, but less so than mineral oil and it subsides.

Yes, as long as you sand off any varnish that might be on it first. I put two thin coats on pine and it looks great and I can still see the grain through it.

I used it mixed with clear sealer on pressure treated pine lumber, and 3 years later, it still has a nice, anti-slip texture. I think this would work.

It doesn't matter the manufacturer or type of wood, as long as the wood is uncoated this sealer will be absorbed shallowly into the wood grain and keep moisture and flavors out. I've used it on maple, oak, hickory and pine with great results. This is not varnish, it's a food safe temporary shield against everyday cooking hazards for wood. One bottle will last more than a year (probably three) for just one cutting board. I am not a professional, just a hobbyist with lots of family that likes to barbeque and cook.

I think it should. Lightly sand the block before applying the oil to help it absorb well. It's a very nice scent.

It will but it is going to recycle allot, maybe after every 2 or 3 shots. Nail penetration will depend on what kind of wood. Oak is denser than pine. A 3 gal compressor would work better and drive longer and thicker nails but for small jobs and infrequent use it will do You could also check out Harbor Freight.

IMHO yes. This product is designed to protect cut ends of dimensional lumber that were factory pressure treated to prevent insect and water damage. By applying this product on the cut ends you are restoring that protection to the lumber where the factory pressure treating was removed by sawing. HTH

I suppose you could. I would be prepared to wipe the oil into the wood after spraying. You would need a sprayer with enough 'ooomph' to spray this oil.

Yes it will. If you check you will find it is one of the recommend oils. GT
