Fair enough. If there is a rotten looking area than use some wood preservative/hardener first and let that dry before hacking off big pieces of wood. Than deal as I described danish oil let’s wood breathe and is water resistant too. If installing new ss sink which sits on top of wood than use silicon to seal edges so no water goes underneath it. Good luck
I should point out, I don’t want to keep it but there’s no point changing it until we do the whole kitchen. What I do want to do is cut out the rot, re-seal it with something impervious to water, install a nice big stainless sink/drainer that will contain most splashes and most importantly stop water going down the back and into the wall.
Not sure whether to just go wild with the silicone sealant or pull the trim off (inevitably making a big mess) and start again.
