SUNDANCE  COATINGS LOG* 1 COAT  is a long oil alkyd resin, semi-transparent, high-value log stain-sealer  formulated and crafted to penetrate, protect, make beautiful, and last for extended years on your Log Home in all climates and temps! It is a more substantive product that outlasts the others!

Sundance LOG*1 COAT features:        

Premium Formulation: Log 1 Coat is more than just a stain-sealer. It’s a testament to their artisan small batch crafted formulations using of the best of architectural ingredients available.  It contains no organic oils such as linseed oil that will propagate black mold and leave a patchy finish.

Natural Wood Aesthetics: Say goodbye to the artificial shine of the problematic multiple coating products!  LOG*1 COAT enhances the grain of your logs, providing a deeply rich and vibrant genuine natural log Home! 

Wood Structure Enhancement: Log 1 Coat penetrates deeply into the log, replenishing and bulking up the lignin structure of the wood enhancing its strength and durability, fortifying it against the elements.

Extreme Climate Endurance: Formulated for longevity, Log 1 Coat thrives in all extreme and high-altitude climates.  Whether scorching sun or freezing cold, it has you covered.

Enhanced Natural Wood Look: Crafted with oil-based semi-transparency and enhanced nano pigmentations, LOG*1 COAT delivers a richer, deeper appearance. It helps conceals blemishes, leaving your logs stunning.

UV and Rot Protection: Shield your logs from U.V. degradation and wood rot decay. Log 1 Coat ensures long- lasting beauty.

Non-Film Forming: Unlike the multiple coatings stain sealers, LOG*1 COAT won’t polymerize, harden, nor sit on top of the wood only to turn patchy, crack, and peel. No need to strip nor media blast for reapplication!

Easy Application: Apply in any temperature from 30-90 Fahrenheit, even directly in the sun. The higher viscosity and content values allow for forgiving, even distribution.

No Long-Term Build-Up: Log 1 Coat remains beautiful over time for 6-8 years. A simple cleaning and re-application returns it to the original beauty when you first put it on!

Long Shelf Life: Will keep for years with some TLC; trust in the durability of Log 1 Coat. The product will not freeze. Just stir up well every season or so.

 

How to Determine if SUNDANCE Stain Sealers are Compatible with a Pre-Existing Stain Sealer Finish?

Try these two tests:

  1. Water Absorption Test:
    • Pour water onto the surface.
    • If the water is absorbed rather than beading up, our stain can likely be applied after a skillful pressure washing.
  2. Fingernail Test:
    • Scratch the surface with your fingernail.
    • If the old finish can be scratched off to bare wood, skillful pressure washing may prepare our stain sufficiently. (By skillful PW refers to a large PW s3500-4000psi, 3.7 to 4.0 gallons per minute, and a white tip. 
    • The wand should stay perpendicular to the wood and be used in a sweeping motion, pulling away at the end of the stroke. The sweet spot typically is 5 – 8 inches away from the wood, pending the stroke speed and pressure used. Care should be taken not to get too close and damage, i.e., burn or dig into the wood.
  • Color Limitations:If the existing finish still has the prior finish wood’s color (e.g., in soffits, nooks and crannies, wood grain, or behind gutters), your color choices may be limited.
  • Flaking or Shiny Finishes:If the finish is flaking or shiny, it must be removed before applying our stain.
  • Organic Oil-Based, Acrylic,& Propylene Glycol Finishes:Polymerizing stain sealer finishes that contain a significant amount of organic oils (like linseed oil), acrylics, or propylene glycol will eventually break down and become patchy and, if not removed, will bleed through our stain sealers. These finishes must, for the most part, be removed for optimal results.

*SUNDANCE Stain Sealers are penetrating oil stain finishes. 

They can not effectively perform on a previously applied impermeable sheened finish created from linseed oil, glycol base, or an acrylic stain sealer.
