Sundance Wood Stain Sealer LOG*1 Coat

Surface Preparation:
• If the existing finish scratches off easily, pressure washing with a cleaning solution may be all that is needed. For prior organic oil-based (i.e. Linseed Oil) acrylic or propylene glycol finishes, stripping, sanding, or media blasting may be recommended for preparation. Remove any flaking or peeling stain so the product can penetrate well.

Recommended Tools:
• Use a high-quality China Bristle brush for application. If needed, use a pole brush for an extended reach.

Application:
• Apply generously by hand, saturating the logs until they are thoroughly coated. Back brush for even penetration.
• Use a high-quality China Bristle brush, a 3/4" to 1" plush roller, or a sprayer followed by back brushing.
• Use a plastic sheeting or tarp to protect surrounding areas.
• Apply to vertical surfaces first, followed by horizontal surfaces. Do not apply a second coat.

Drying:
• Log*1 Coat provides ample working time. Dripping is minimal unless overapplied. If running does occur, simply back brush again.

Finish:
• The finish is initially dark, but lightens within a few days. A full cure can take up to 30 days. Rain typically won't affect the finish after a few hours. Heavy rain spotting can be addressed by back-brushing with a 50/50 mix of mineral spirits and stain sealer after drying. Minor spots usually disappear during curing.

Cleaning:
• Clean tools and equipment immediately after use with mineral spirits. Wash hands and skin with soap and water.

Storage:
• Store LOG*1 Coat in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. If stored properly, the product can last for several years. Stir well before each use.

Caulking Tips:
• Choose a color that closely matches the anticipated wood tone after staining. Make sure to apply caulk before staining for best results. If done after staining, make sure the stain has dried completely. Most caulks are acrylic and can bleed through semi-transparent stains. Avoid caulking small checks.
