    Hi all,
    I have just got a new kitchen with a solid walnut countertop sealed with a danish oil. Just wondering what is the best way to clean this. Can i use the usual Flash or Mr Muscle kitchen cleaners? All advice appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I would just use a mild soap solution nothing with bleach or chemicals also keep it dry as much as possible wipe up any spills and give it a rub with mineral every so often.

    I wouldn't use flash or mr muscle, they will damage the finish

    Washing up liquid mixed in water should do the job, for tough stains try lemon juice and a bit of salt.

    i'd say soap and water or washing up liquid water mixture,
    not so sure about salt tho as the salt grains might scratch wood or ur oil surface finish,
