I haven't fiited it yet, or bought the worktop, and I have been advised that it could be problematic. However, a ceramic top mount sink will set me back £200. I could replace the worktop for £350, so I'm not inclined to rush out and buy another sink.

But, I thought maybe I could do something to protect the sink area. Maybe wax? Was is great as resisting water. Could I wax the internal sides of the sink cut out? Or is there something else I should do. I gather oil is only ok at resisting water. Which is surprising given everyone uses it.

Speaking of wax, can I just wax the whole worktop? Wax is edible, right, and therefore food-safe?

Other (nice) suggestions welcome.

Thanks!
