Use Artisan® Woodsealer for sealing the ends of logs or lumber or to coat green turned bowls to control checking and splitting during the seasoning period. The coating is a water base, wax type emulsion which will dry clear and remain flexible; much superior to paraffin wax or paints. High figured areas in bowls or lumber as well as knots, should be coated with sealer to prevent checking. In some species of wood, where borers or beetles give particular problems, removing bark from the edge of the planks and coating the complete surface area of the plank will usually prevent infestation, as the adult females do not find suitable places to lay the eggs and begin the infestation cycle.

Rough end grain will take more coating per square foot, but on the average, about 100 square feet per gallon may be expected.
