The short answer: no, as long as the finish is done properly.<\/p>\n<h2>The three-layer finish<\/h2>\n<p>The first layer seals the pores of the wood so that no liquid can get in. The second nourishes the fibres with natural oil. The third provides the surface protection. The result is a table that can handle olive oil, red wine and a glass left out overnight \u2013 as hundreds of customers who use theirs every day can confirm.<\/p>\n<h2>The daily routine<\/h2>\n<p>A soft, slightly damp cloth. No products containing alcohol, ammonia or scouring particles. Coloured liquids \u2013 wine, beetroot, turmeric \u2013 should be wiped up as soon as you notice them, not three hours later.<\/p>\n<h2>If a mark does remain<\/h2>\n<p>This is where an oil finish really comes into its own: the repair is local. Lightly sand the spot with a fine abrasive pad, wipe away the dust, apply a little oil and wipe off the excess after 20 minutes. You won't see a thing. With lacquer, the same repair would mean sanding back the whole tabletop.<\/p>\n<h2>What to avoid<\/h2>\n<p>Putting hot pans straight on the tabletop (use a trivet), cutting directly on the table and leaving wet metal objects on it overnight.
