Julie BarnettJulie Barnett: These raised beds are only a year old and already had a lot of wear and tear so wanted a natural protector. It is like straight up painting with thick honey it feels like. Super messy, but does the job. I got the 1 quart and after doing inside and outside of the 2 beds it is all gone. I think I did it too thick to be honest. The pic of the back side of the raised bed is a very light coat compared to the darkness of the thick coats. Hope it holds up in the garden. Sometimes natural products are a pain but don’t want chemicals in my garden.

Vanessa R.Vanessa R.: We’ve used polyurethanes and other sealer / protectants in the past. But for our current project (a food surface), we wanted something more natural. One of our sons recommended Tried and True. I’m so glad we tried this. It’s simple ingredients (no gnarly stuff) and gives a beautiful finish. (I’ve included before and after photos.)
First, it’s all natural linseed oil (flaxseed oil) and beeswax. That’s it. No chemicals, no smelly fumes, no worry about getting it on your skin. In fact, it felt wonderful to rub it into our dry hands after working with the wood all day.
It goes on super easy with an old tshirt cloth. Wait one hour, wipe off any excess, then rub with 0000 steel wool. Beautiful! It’s water resistant. (Not water proof). Feels lovely to the touch.
Before applying the first coat, be sure to sand well. We found that wetting our maple slab after a 120-grit sand helped pull up the grain. Then we sanded again with 240. Then wet it again to pull up the grain, then sanded again with 320. Wet it again and sanded with 400. THEN we applied the first coat. We’ll likely do a second application in a few days.
I highly recommend this product...
