I've got this crazy idea that difficult to dry wood ie: thick slabs, curly grain, crotches etc. might benefit from a thin coat of log sealer on the ENTIRE board. Obviously this would slow the drying process but that's sort of the whole point. In some situations is not drying slow better?
So, if you put a product like Bailey's log sealer on an entire board can it still dry to some degree? Does this stuff breathe at all?
Back in the spring I did this to some thick walnut and white oak slabs. So far the pieces look very good......it just might take them 100 years to dry. Any other suggestions for slowing the drying process?
