Tom Kendall Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 Hi. I am in the process of making some wooden trivets for sitting hot casseroles on and wondered what I can use so that the heat doesn't peel or crack the finish? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks. johnthomas418 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Beasley Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 Might want to char the surface a bit, leaves it more resistant to damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhighlander Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 ... and don't use a film finish at all. Nothing, or just a simple oil finish that soaks in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardA Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 Mineral oil is usually best for that type of finish. Just clean and redo when the wood gets pale. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
