Log-Gevity Log Stain & Stabilizer

Log-Gevity Log Stain & Stabilizer is designed as the first step in a two-step finish for use with the Log-Gevity Log Finish Coat. Log Stain & Stabilizer may be used on horizontal and vertical wood surface. Log-Gevity Log Stain & Stabilizer is designed to protect logs from ultraviolet radiation, water intrusion, and ultimate log/wood degradation by integrating metallic UV inhibitors, zinc borates, with water repellants within its formula. Log-Gevity Log Stain & Stabilizer extends color fastness while addressing certain harsh elevation and climate conditions. Log-Gevity Log Stain & Stabilizer stabilizes the wood, protecting the second semi-transparent coat by bonding with the initial pre-finished/stabilized wood.

Log Stain & Stabilizer Application Instructions • Apply Log-Gevity Stain & Stabilizer with a brush, staining pad, low pressure (HVLP) sprayer or airless sprayer.  • When using a sprayer always back brush the product into the surface. • Apply as much Log Stain & Stabilizer as the logs/wood will absorb to reach a uniform appearance. • Keep a wet edge to avoid lap marks. • A top coat of Log-Gevity Log Finish Coat may then be applied with a brush, low pressure (HVLP) sprayer or airless sprayer. • Dry time: Under optimal conditions Log Stain & Stabilizer will flash dry in approximately 30 minutes. • Clean up: Use mineral spirits or dish detergent and water. • If Log-Gevity Stain & Stabilizer comes in contact with surfaces such as glass, paint, metal, caulking or rubber, remove immediately with soap and water.
