About this item:
ANCHORSEAL 2 is a hybrid of plant-based polymers and wax that protects the ends of green logs and lumber from end checking and splitting. AS2 controls the rate of moisture loss during air drying for hardwood, exotic hardwood decking and softwood. It is a high-performance, economical choice for sealing green wood and fresh cut lumber. ANCHORSEAL 2 is best-in-class for the protection of deck end cuts for exotic hardwood species. When carefully applied to the freshly cut ends of tropical hardwoods, such as ipe, Brazilian cherry, mahogany, teak, cumaru & tigerwood, AS2 prevents up to 90% of end checking, protecting your investment and extending the life of the deck. It is also a preferred end grain sealer of the woodworking industry for wood bowls, turning blanks, cookies & live-edge wood slabs.

Surface Preparation
All areas to be coated should be clear of dirt and debris
Application
Apply ANCHORSEAL 2 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
If applying to the cut ends of deck boards: apply ANCHORSEAL 2 carefully with a thin brush or sponge applicator. To avoid potential staining, do not allow ANCHORSEAL 2 to get on the face of the boards.
If you need a deck end cut sealer that penetrates below the surface of wood that can be painted or stained over, we recommend SEAL ENDS ONCE (also made by U-C Coatings)
Cleanup & Storage
Clean application equipment using hot soapy water
Store unused ANCHORSEAL 2 above 50°F/10°C to prevent freezing. Winterized formulas will protect against freeze damage
