@mandy Should be able to work it down to wood treating once a month. Sand blemishes when it gets bad, and treat that more frequently until it's back to normal.
@mandy It is thought about in the same way, yep, but while some of the material does seep in and harden deeper in the wood, the wax stays near the top. Unlike cast iron, you don't want the finish to improve with um, use. 😛
