Protect Your Lumber Investment with Preserva Wood End Cut Solution
Preserva Wood End Cut Solution in Brown is a professional-grade, oil-based wood sealer specifically formulated to protect and seal end cuts on all species of lumber. When wood is cut, the exposed end grain becomes the most vulnerable area for moisture penetration, which can lead to cracking, checking, splitting, and premature rot. This premium sealer provides essential protection where your lumber needs it most.
Superior Oil-Based Formula
Unlike water-based alternatives, our oil-based formula penetrates deep into the wood fibers, providing long-lasting protection from the inside out. The formulation includes wax additives that create a water-repellent barrier, preventing moisture from entering the exposed end grain. This is particularly important for outdoor projects like decks, fences, pergolas, and other exterior structures where exposed end cuts are constantly subjected to rain, snow, and humidity.
The brown tint not only blends naturally with most wood species but also provides visible confirmation that you've achieved complete coverage. This eliminates guesswork during application and ensures every end cut receives adequate protection.

Easy Professional Application

1. Apply liberally to all freshly cut ends before installation or immediately after cutting
2. Ensure complete coverage of the end grain surface
3. Allow adequate drying time before exposure to moisture
4. Reapply to any areas that may have been missed or worn over time
The brown tint makes it easy to see where you've applied the sealer, ensuring no spots are missed during application.
