I'm turning some salt and pepper shakers for gifts and was wondering what would be a good finish?
They'll be handled a lot and probably spend substantial time on a kitchen counter so durability is a must.
What about food safety? Do most folks put a coating on the inside of shakers or just leave them raw on the inside?
I was thinking about a spar urethane for the outside and leaving them raw on the inside or using a food-safe oil on the inside.
Any help is much appreciated.
