This is not our top recommendation for countertops as Aqua Resin Stain Finish has no built in abrasion resistance.If you plan on actively using your butcher block countertop for food preparation, we would recommend a food grade sealer (food grade means it's ingestible). Unfortunately these are oils with no color quality, beyond the slight ambering it will give your countertop. Bioshield Herbal Oil and Naturals Clear Penetrating Oil are our food grade sealers. Like any oil, these will need to be reapplied periodically.If your countertop is less about food prep and more about just another horizontal space in your kitchen, we would recommend AFM Safecoat DuroTone if you wanted to introduce a coloring component and then coat over that with several coats of AFM Polyureseal BP for abrasion and water resistance. (Disclaimer: Countertops is not what Polyureseal BP was formulated for, but if you absolutely must stain your countertop, this is your best course)
