Butcher Block Conditioner

I normally use Mineral Oil on my cutting boards, however after seeing Marc's podcast on cutting boards, I was going to start adding beeswax to the mineral oil. I see that Rockler sells a Butcher Block Conditioner, that includes Beeswax and carnauba oil. Has anyone used this before? and how were the results.

Thanks

I've been using Clapham's salad bowl finish on my butcherblock counter and have been very happy with it. I also use it on any furniture surface I build in which my wife is likely to park a hot cup of tea on it, which is pretty much all the horizontal ones.

Roger Clapham is a friend of mine and one of the wackiest characters I have ever met. He kept bees for 30 years and then one day his aged mother was visiting and decided to try making some furniture polish out of all the wax he had piling up. That batch was a disaster but the current version of his furniture polish is nice stuff and was developed with the assistance of James Krenov to be museum quality.
