Santos Mahogany Countertops are extremely unique because the wood specie is not seen often. One special characteristic of Santos Mahogany is that it has a wide variation in color. Santos Mahogany is a very dense South American species and is a mahogany alternative. Santos Santos Mahogany Countertops are typically crafted in Edge Grain Construction, which is shown in the diagram below.

Santos Mahogany Countertops are typically designed to be used as kitchen surface countertops. They are also typically crafted in Edge Grain Construction Style. Santos Mahogany Countertops can include any of the Wood Countertop Options and Features available. Most often than not, they are finished with Durata® Permanent Finish.

Durata® Permanent Finish is a proprietary finish exclusive to surfaces crafted by The Grothouse Lumber Company. Durata® makes the countertop a completely waterproof and chemical resistant surface after 30 days. Durata® is not only waterproof, but does not require any ongoing maintenance. Durata® is Green guard certified and has received the highest possible rating for durability from ASTM International, a worldwide standard setting organization. The finish is not affected by Lacquer thinner, Ammonia, Red Wine, Vinegar, Oil, Ketchup, Mustard, Bleach, or Soaps. Durata® is available in Satin Sheen or Matte Sheen. It is FDA approved for indirect exposure (i.e. Kneading dough), but not for direct chopping. Direct chopping applications should be avoided. For chopping applications, Grothouse recommends Grothouse Original Oil™.
