Review: Great product - Works great. Lasts a long time.
Review: A good insurance policy for your wood. - I may not be using this product for which it was originally designed, but so far it seems to work well for me. Most of the reviews I read for this product indicate use for green wood, but I like to use it as further protection for woods that are already "stable". I have both kiln-dried and air-dried woods, and many of them are exotics which represent a significant monetary investment. Dealing with seasonal changes can tax any wood product, and no matter how well I try to control climate in the shop, relative humidity swings of 20% or even greater are not uncommon during drastic weather changes. Sometimes Mother Nature moves at a faster rate than the climate controls can keep up. It can especially be bad if the big doors are kept open while moving items in/out. Had a couple of times where it took a few days to get back where I wanted, and I'm sure it's an indicator that my climate controls are not suitably-sized for my area. Still, my present equipment serves me well enough, and I certainly don't wish to invest in construction of a lab environment. So even with "kiln-dried" wood, the stock is still at risk if the storage environment is not kept reasonably stable. Of course, different species of wood absorb/lose moisture at different rates than others, but I don't like taking chances with ANY of it. To me, the purpose of coating is not to completely prevent moisture exchange, but rather to retard it. (Fast rates of exchange are what have given me the most problems.) Once the moisture content of the wood is at the level I want, I like to keep it there as much as possible during fluctuations in the atmosphere. (On some pieces, I'll even coat the entire piece, not just the endgrain.) In the past I have used leftover paint, polyurethane, or dipped in hot wax to protect end grain. All worked fine, but presented compromises. Somehow it just doesn't feel right taking an expensive piece of ebony, rosewood, etc. and putting paint on it, wondering if all paint can be removed without excessive wood waste. The hot wax works great and removes easily with scraping, but application is inconvenient, especially if coating a large piece. This Anchorseal goes on very easily, doesn't stain the wood, and cleans up easily. For me, it is a better alternative than the coatings I previously used. Concerning performance, only time will tell, but I suspect it performs every bit as well as my previous methods.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is the sq. ft. coverage per gallon?**
A: Well, a gallon is 231 cubic inches, so if your coating thickness is about 4 mils (0.004 inches) then you get up to 400 square feet.  However, since you want this to soak in as much as possible, you might want a thicker coat, say 10 mils (0.010 inches) which would give you about 32 square feet.  What really matters is not the coverage, but the ability to seal the grain and that depends on the type and moisture content of your wood.  For purchasing decisions, I would use maybe 100 to 200 sq. ft per gallon for the first trial and then use experience to determine how much for the next purchase.

**Q: how often do you need to reapply this on an outdoor deck?**
A: Assuming you mean to apply Anchorseal 2 to the end grain to prevent checking, you may never have to reapply.  I would suggest brushing on one coat of Anchorseal 2 and two minutes later, a second coat, allowing t to fully penetrate. It will seal off the end grain while minimizing the expansion/contraction of the wood as well, since 80% of the moisture absorbed by exterior wood is absorbed through the end grain.  The only exception might be if the end grain pieces are exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods of time.  I would check once a year to see if reapplication in sun exposed areas is required.  If you can no longer feel a "waxy" coating you can reapply as necessary.  Good luck!

**Q: Can Anchorseal be applied to freshly cut logs in below freezing temperatures?**
A: I wish that I could answer your question, I lie in south Louisiana and cut my timber during the late spring. Had no problem with Anchorseal at that time, sorry for delay in answering your question. Good luck.

**Q: I have three big logs from an oak tree cut in my yard to use as outdoor seats. How can I protect them?**
A: Read my blogs (2 pages in Facebook on Sherman Anderson/Best Tree Service.com and Sherman's Spinning Tops.com. I have removed 4,412 trees since 1992 and serve 680 customers in Mtn. View, AR. This week we removed a 55' post oak 30" diameter trunk. It's five saw logs will be construction material for my ground man's new house he is building. Google Best Tree Service to learn more.

Works great sealing turning blanks and rough turned bowls. I just wish it wasn't so expensive.
