Log Home Restoration: Stripping and Sealing
As you can see in this log home restoration, the finish has failed, the logs have grayed out and mildew is not onlyon the wood but, it is also enbedded in the chinking.
- Log Home Restoration: Failing Finish
Stripping will remove the mildew that is visable but a chlorine wash is the only way to be certain ALL has been removed from checks, knot holes and other areas that may be hard to get to.
Log Home Restoration: After Stripping
After the stripping and chlorine wash, the wood must be neutralized
- Log Home Restoration: Finished Staining and Chinking
to ensure all chemical residue has been removed for proper stain adhesion.
This home was sealed then the chinking was cleaned and re-painted using “chink paint.”
