About Log Home Finishes:

The overwhelming principle we want to impart is that wood loves water. Unsealed wood will absorb moisture any chance it gets. Unsealed saw cuts, and uncoated concealed wood leads to a legacy of costly maintenance that can be easily avoided if we follow 3 principles during construction:

1. All end grain (saw cuts) must be sealed with a water-proofer, wood sealer, or glue depending on project, if we want to avoid unneeded moisture intrusion and deterioration. The cost of backside and end-grainsealing is offset fivefold or more over the expected life of the structure.

2. We must use a coating that is flexible and breathable to insure that trapped moisture does not cause coating failure (See Coating Failure ).

3.Seek to choose a coating appropriate for the UV sunlight exposure given the particular species of wood, while considering client expectations and maintenance capabilities.

One TIME® WOOD protector is a unique exterior wood protection formula that penetrates deep into the substrate's cellular structure and cures into the wood with natural sunlight. It can NOT evaporate or wash away like other products that simply coat the wood surface. One TIME® encapsulates the wood keeping moisture out.

Treatment of wood has been practiced for almost as long as the use of wood itself. Some accounts reach back to the beginning of recorded history. For example the Bible in Genesis, 6:13-14 “And God said unto Noah… make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.” There are also records of wood preservation reaching back to ancient Greece during Alexander the Great’s rule, where bridge wood was soaked in olive oil. The Romans also protected their wood by brushing their ship hulls with tar. During the Industrial Revolution wood preservation became a corner stone of the wood processing industry. Inventors and scientists such as Bethell, Boucherie, Burnett and Kyan made historic developments in wood preservation, with the preservative solutions and processes.

The ancient Chinese used Tung Oil to waterproof their ships, and that same tung oil is now blended for even greater performance in Waterlox Tung Oil Finish
