ANCHORSEAL® Classic End Sealer

ANCHORSEAL should be applied to any cut ends of Ipe decking!

ANCHORSEAL Classic is a best-in-class premium wax emulsion end sealer used for the prevention of end checks (drying splits) in both hardwood & softwood logs or lumber. By controlling the rate of moisture loss, up to 90% of end checks can be prevented when applying ANCHORSEAL. It was the 1st end grain sealer introduced to the log & lumber industry by U-C Coatings in 1980 and is still considered the best end grain protection you can get for logs & lumber. It is also widely used in the woodworking industry to protect, debarked logs, wood turning blanks, log "cookies" and live edge slabs.

Surface Preparation

• All areas to be coated should be clear of dirt and debris

Application

• Apply ANCHORSEAL using a brush, roller or sprayer until it begins to drip slightly
• For optimal coverage, use a gas engine, electric, air operated or backpack sprayer from U·C Coatings
• If using spray equipment other than those sold by U·C Coatings, use 0.21”/0.55 mm tip or larger
• Logs larger than 24”/60 cm in diameter will require a heavier coating, or two coats must be applied within a 15 minute period

Cleanup & Storage

• Clean application equipment using hot soapy water
• Store unused ANCHORSEAL above 50°F/10°C to prevent freezing. Winterized formulas will protect against freeze damage
