Rust-Oleum's History
Solving challenges is the very foundation of who we are. After all, in the beginning, our founder, sea captain Robert Fergusson, didn’t particularly care about paint. He just wanted to keep his ship intact. That’s why, when he noticed that an accidental splash of fish oil had stopped the relentless spread of corrosion on his rusty metal deck, he immediately recognized it for what it was: A valuable solution.
The same passion that drove the Captain to spend his next few years creating the world’s first rust-preventative paint still drives us today. When we see a problem, we work diligently until we’ve perfected a solution—which has led to some of the most cutting-edge, durable and innovative products in the industry. If you’ve got a surface you need to protect or a look you want to transform, you’ve come to the right place. We have a coating for every challenge.

I used the finish on a new butcher's block countertop. Applied it only twice and used a regular microfiber cloth. It doesn't look like it should work! It's not nearly glossy enough or smooth enough to touch, but it's totally water resistant. First I tried with water, then with vinegar, and then with beet juice. Everything comes off easily, leaving literally zero residue.
If you're buying this to seal your butcher's block, I can at least say that it does what it advertises to do initially. We'll see about long-term durability.
Also, make sure to ventilate well! It may not be toxic when it dries, but it sure does smell like it is during application.
Not only on a butcher block. Used excess on some sanded birch plywood, gave it a fine cabinet-grade appearance. I applied a single coat of water-based polyurethane on both just to enhance the "pop" on both the butcher block and plywood.

Es importante destacar que no es un barniz de poliuretano, por lo que no crea una capa brillante y protectora, sino que ofrece un acabado más mate que realza la belleza natural de la madera, destacando su veta y proporcionando un aspecto fino y elegante. La no toxicidad es un enorme plus, dándome tranquilidad en el uso diario.
La característica que más valoro es que permite que la madera 'respire' y asegura que con el tiempo no se formarán grietas ni descascarillados. Ya era admirador de los aceites daneses y los selladores Rostoleum, pero Watco ha añadido un nuevo nivel de acabado natural a mi repertorio. Para aquellos que prefieran métodos aún más naturales, podrían optar por aceite de tung puro, pero la comodidad y el menor tiempo de secado de Watco, junto con la eliminación de pasos adicionales, hacen que el precio sea absolutamente razonable. ¡Cinco estrellas merecidas por este excepcional producto!
Reviewed in India on March 11, 2018
But having said that, for the said purpose of coating new product or restoring badly dry/chippy product which is starting to absorb water, it is really good. More effective than regular mineral oil. So it does serve a purpose for me, but make sure you are getting it for the right purpose. I basically use it once on all new unvarnished knife/ladle handles and butcher blocks, and once in a year, I might coat my butcher blocks and knife/ladle handles again. Its should also be great for wooden kitchen surfaces, if having, though I have quartz so not a first person experience (but lot of American reviews mention this and it makes sense from what I have seen of its properties).
