After purchasing Lyscore olive wood products, many customers ask the same question: “How do I maintain it?” Actually, caring for olive wood is much simpler than you think. Just avoid a few “red flags,” and it will accompany you for a lifetime.
❌ Absolute Taboos: Dishwashers & Prolonged Soaking
This is the “number one killer” of olive wood. The high heat and powerful water jets in dishwashers will instantly destroy the wood’s structure, causing cracks and warping. Similarly, never leave it soaking in the sink after washing.

✅ Correct Cleaning: Warm Water + Mild Soap
After use, gently wipe the product with warm water, a small amount of mild dish soap, and a soft sponge. After rinsing, immediately dry it thoroughly with a clean towel and place it in a well-ventilated area to air dry.

✨ Regular “Spa Treatment”: Apply Oil
Just like our skin needs moisturizer, olive wood needs to “drink oil.” We recommend applying a thin layer of food-grade mineral oil or olive oil to the dry wood surface every 1-2 months. Let it absorb for a few hours, then wipe off the excess. You will notice the once dull surface instantly regains its charming luster!

🛠️ Minor Flaw Repair: Fine Sanding
If slight scratches or roughness appear on the surface, don’t panic. Gently sand along the grain with high-grit fine sandpaper, apply a coat of oil, and it will be reborn.
