Products You’ll Need Along the Way

Step 1 – Prep

Good surface prep meets these 5 prerequisites:

  1. Clean Wood: The surface is free of dust, dirt, pollen, bird poo, mold, algae, and other surface contaminants. Staining over top of these simply locks them in under the stain. Boo.
  2. Sound Wood: All loose, UV-damaged gray and yellow wood has been removed. All of these wood fibers will eventually fall off and take your stain with it.
  3. Dry Wood: Wood is at or below 19% moisture content, lower in dry climates. Wet wood can lead to a host of issues, including peeling and rot. (Yuck.)
  4. Warm Wood: Surfaces are between 40°F and 90°F when staining. (Too hot or cold and the stain won’t adhere and penetrate properly.)
  5. Textured Wood: Wood has been roughed up a bit, which allows it to hang on to more stain to improve durability.

Step 2 – Preserve

Preserving Your Home

Once surfaces are clean, it’s time to apply preservatives. Preservatives help protect the structure of the wood itself, preventing damage caused by moisture and insects that can lead to costly repairs. Preservatives are the must-have insurance for every log home owner.
