When
one of our most dedicated customers found a 375-year-old piece of semi-rotten
wood that was likely going to be thrown out, Master Craftsman Eric looked at it
as a challenge.
"It
was rotten, full of sponge-like wood sections and it had cracks, and holes all
over," he said. "I think most people would've discarded the wood immediately.
But through the use of a thinned epoxy almost fully penetrated through the
thickness of the plank we stabilized the material and filled the
holes.
"Then,
using Waterlox, we were able to give it a furniture grade appearance, avoiding
the 'plastic' look associated with epoxies. It's truly a testament to Waterlox
and how it brings out the natural beauty of wood."
