LIQUID WAX END SEALER
A superior non-staining joinery, end grain sealer
and buffing wax. Use alone or as a finish
coat on any woodwork for added sheen and protection. Also refurbishes
dry, dull logs, timbers, or anything made of wood. Apply one of two
ways: rub in as a polish and buff dry, or apply, let dry, and polish
with a power buffer. This product is excellent for periodic maintenance
and cleaning of timber frames. For joinery or end grain, simply paint on Liquid Wax before long-term storage to reduce checking or just before putting piece into place for easier fitting and extra protection.
Our Liquid Wax End Sealer is used often by timber framers in the
shop for sealing the end grain and joints of large timbers for deep oil
penetration to reduce checking without the danger of staining the wood.
It is great for any raw log ends sitting in the log yard, or any timber
end grain exposed to the weather. This formula also makes the wax much
more durable for a top coat and is recommended for top-coating in floor finishing, counter-tops, and a final coat on an earthen floor and
for general furniture finishing.
Coverage:
Approx. 800 + square feet per
gallon; rough-sawn materials tend to absorb more.
You get less coverage on the first coat and more on the second. The density of the wood is also a factor. Softer woods like
pine or reclaimed Doug. Fir will absorb more than oak for example. And
obviously dry wood will soak up a lot more oil than green timbers. You may want
to over-estimate when ordering.The finish keeps indefinitely when stored
properly with minimal air exposure.
Clean Up: For spills, over spray, or to clean up brushes, use
our Pure Citrus Solvent or other solvent (Turpentine, Mineral Spirits, etc.).
