A traditional Stain or wood preservative may not give you the best results. Unless you take action from the very beginning to protect both the inside and outside logs, you could be risking your substantial investment. Sikkens wood finishes are tested and proven to stand up under the toughest conditions.

3 Exterior Log Home Care Products and Color Guide Sikkens Wood Preservative The First Step Logs must be protected against wood rot, fungi, mold and mildew. Sikkens Wood Preservative is a registered pretreatment for exterior wood to protect from the deteriorating effects of fungi, mold, mildew, bacteria and algae growth. Cetol 1 A Perfect Foundation Cetol 1 is a translucent exterior wood finish that separates wood from the elements with a durable surface barrier, which repels water, while allowing excess moisture to escape thus inhibiting fungal growth. Because the finish breathes, it allows the logs to regulate moisture content. The Cetol 1 remains firmly attached to the wood ensuring its longevity. Cetol 23 Plus Protection & Beauty Cetol 23 Plus offers a greater degree of protection from the harmful effects of ultraviolet light in areas of high elevation or intense sunlight. The secret is an unprecedented use of two UV-absorbing materials, widely dispersed and permanently fixed into the surface film. Cetol 23 Plus firmly retains its elasticity making it the ideal translucent topcoat for Exterior logs. Cetol SRD One Step Protection Cetol SRD is an easy-to-use translucent water repellent exterior wood finish for Log homes and other areas such as Log Siding, Roofs and Decks. This one-coat system incorporates finely ground Transparent iron oxide pigments, just like those in Cetol 1 and Cetol 23 Plus, resulting in a rich, natural and uniform coloration of the wood surface, while offering protection from moisture and UV damage.
