Hi
I normally wipe some Danish oil over my oak worktop a couple of times a year.
It's got a few stains where it's been in contact with stuff that has been absorbed and won't wipe off.
Should I sand it before oiling it this time? Will that be effective at removing the stains?
What grade of sandpaper should I use? Should I start at 180 and finish with 240 before oiling?
Should I use a machine sander or do it by hand?
I've attached a photo - cheers for any help.
