  • Works well
Size: 1 Quart
I was skeptical when I first applied this stuff, but when I returned the next day it had dried to a nice thin layer of wax on the end of the boards. It went on white, but appears to be clear now. So far I'm happy with it.

  • Worked great
Size: 1 Quart
I used this on a pavilion I was building out of green lumber next to my pool. It allowed me to build quickly with wet wood and not worry about the wood checking and twisting as it dries. Highly recommended.

  • Stop checking
Size: 1 Quart
This stuff is great. Ordered some green Douglas fir timbers for a project and realized In couldn’t start for a few months. I was worried about the timbers drying too quickly and checking. Applied the seal to the ends of the timbers and had almost no checking 6 months later. Keep in mind I live in a dry climate. ... show more

  • Works as advertised
Size: 1 Quart
Anchorseal is a waxy liquid used to seal the ends of logs to slow the rate of drying and reduce the amount of checking in the wood. I had some fresh pine logs that I wanted to prevent splitting in, so I went with Anchorseal over latex paint as Anchorseal is reputed to be more water impermeable. I expected the wax to separate out of solution but that wasn't the case. It applied very easily, soaking into the endgrain. I was able to seal the ends of seven logs roughly 24" across and still have half a can left. A couple months later I've seen no appreciable checking. Summer will be the real test, but so far so good. ... show more

  • Works, much better then their new version.
Size: 1 Quart
I am a long time wood worker and have used the traditional version of Anchor Seal from the beginning. It has always done the job for me. Minimizes checking and cracking of end-grain while the wood is drying. I also use it on the outside of rough turned bowls so the bowl dries from the inside providing a much decreased chance of cracking while drying. ... show more

  • Protect your end grain
Size: 1 Quart
Goes on easy with a brush and dries rather quickly outdoors. Looks like a thick milk and dries clear. Easy to see if you’ve missed any areas. My quart size container covered 4 ends of a 33” diameter log after I cut it in two.

  • does this really work?
Size: 1 Quart
I'm not sure if this product really works. 50% of the boards were cracked after use.
