Wood Restoration Kit

We live in an older log home and I was intrigued that this product was used by historical preservation societies to shore up and repair damage that can happen over the years. We have used this product both inside and outside to repair damaged logs, and even an interior bathroom floor that had a bit of damage around the base of the toilet. The product is easy to use, but you will have to wear gloves, especially for the liquid wood part of the treatment. It's a two part process, and even with the most practiced hands and careful use, it can be messy. The wood filler portion is also a two part process. There are gloves and a spatula included to make the process easier. Frankly, I found just getting into the filler with your hands and working it till it's even is the best approach. The product dries beautifully, it can be sanded, stained, and it is extremely durable. We always make sure we have tis product on hand for what may happen. Follow the directions, allow both the liquiwood and the filler to dry thourughly and you can't go wrong.

I bought this to repair 75 yr old cedar siding that has started rotting & cracking at the bottom of the boards due to the paint wearing off & rain. I had to do about 40 feet of boards, averaging about 3" of damage at the bottom of each board. I didn't think this kit would be enough, as the jars are small. However, I was able to finish all of the boards and I still have a little left. The material is quite dry, so be sure to have gloves and rubbing alcohol handy! I found tight fitting nitrile gloves worked best. Using the alcohol was the only way I could get it stick or go on smoothly. Once dry, it sanded well and accepted paint with no problems. I am highly sensitive to VOCs and odors, but this has very little smell and didn't bother me. Overall, it's a great product!

I had purchased this product from this seller November 22, 2016 but the 'leave a review' button is gone but I wanted to leave one now bc I just used the product:) So it took awhile for me to get the courage to do this project but today, I didn't think about it I just did it. I looked at the online videos a few times, read the instructs a few times and then got started. I'm repairing a wood floor from 1946 (I know this is original bc I've taken out a couple of walls and the floor was underneath and already stained). This was a previous doorway before someone else took out that wall. When I bought the house there was carpet down so I didn't know about it. Took out the carpet and HORRORS! I thought I would have to have the wood cut out and maybe put a perpendicular long piece in w supports under the floor etc. Research always gives more than one solution:) I found this and I knew I could do it and save a lot of $. When I got the Liquid Wood painted on I realized I didn't know when to put the Woodepox in... wait or immediate? So... I took a chance (it's Sunday), several ppl answered:). The seller gave me really good advice and the one following him in the post. 5-20 minutes said the seller and the other guy said he waited about an hour. I'd already waited about two hours but my stuff was soaked and just right... tacky to the touch. So I mixed up my play doh and started squeezing it into all the rotten crevices and smashed and smashed it in then leveled it off as best I could. I did all the holes, one after the other then went back and smoothed a bit with the alcohol. I poured some alcohol into a plastic cat food dish (I save these bc they are so great for painting on canvas and small jobs) and smoothed out the surface with the mud knife. It had already started getting firm but the alcohol made it pliable a bit again. When I painted on the Liquid Wood I used a paintbrush from my art set, a 1/2 inch across brush. Some of the crevices were under the wood so I couldn't see how far back or big so I poured the liquid on top of the brush next to the hole and just dabbed everywhere the brush would go and then I wouldn't waste the liquid trying to scoop it up into holes. This worked great. I coated everything about three times. I had mixed one ounce each of A and B of the liquid and had trouble using it all. There was more than enough even though I had a lot to cover. There's lots left over too. I did use all the Woodepox though. I realized it was best to take smaller amounts of each, mix them together then add some more bc the color has to be one color when the mixing is done. With the larger amount it seemed to take forever to get it to be one color. I just put it out on a plastic grocery bag and put my feet at either end of the bag to hold it down. Some pieces would fall out of my ball of play doh and I would just dab it up with the ball in my hand. Super easy to work with. I used the gloves but they must have been super man's:) Huge! I could have used my hair coloring gloves and the fit would be better. It did the job though. I'll try and post some pics of my pitiful floor. I know this is extremely amateurish but I wish I'd seen something similar while I was trying to work up the courage to start. Had no idea except the directions on what to do and I did just fine:)

I love this product and have used it with success for years. Does what is says when used correctly. These smaller pints don't go far and are best suited for small repairs.

Never disappoints! As a former carpenter I have used this product several years. If you use it precisely as per instructions, it will last for years!

I used this product to fix a rotten window. The liquid part didn’t soak into the dry rotted wood as well as I imagined it would (drilled small holes and used a syringe with a needle to force the liquid part into the wood) but the putty part adhered to the wood very well and the texture was perfect for molding and sculpting. Time will tell how well it holds up. This is the 2nd time I’ve had to fix this window. The first time I used auto body putty and it lasted 15 yrs.

This product works as advertised. Once set up, the putty is very hard, which is a good thing. The powder was a bit on the dry side but I managed to mix it okay. I will be using more of it on the deteriorated/rotted wood in our travel trailer I think it will do the trick quite nicely. Would recommend this product.

Ingenious. Repaired some rot damage on the trim for our neighborhood mailboxes.

Excellent product but expensive. Also the putty was much easier to work with than the competition. I bought some craft syringes from Amazon to get the epoxy deep into the cracked wood. When project completed it dried rock solid, so happy!

Used this to restore my mother-in-law's old wooden sign for their house. Has sentimental value so it was great to be able to do so. The resin made it waterproof and protects it against further rot while the paste was great for rebuilding the rotted parts and takes paint well so it could be matched.

I was all set to replace my door and several partially rotted deck boards. Since it was a big job I thought, why not try this product before the hard work. The area on the door was where a hinge attached, and after following the instructions, it has worked perfectly. The deck repairs also saved me hours of work and money. We live in a rain forest on the ocean so wood rots very quickly, even treated wood, so I am thrilled I can now fix areas before it becomes serious. The liquid sealer really holds all the soft wood back into a solid part. I love it when something does what they say it will do.

Easy to make and install, reliable, and durable.

Had a rotten corner on my deck fascia. Removed the rotten wood and applied the epoxy hardener. The result was impressive. The epoxy hardener had penetrated the area where applied and produced a hard surface to work on. I had waited several hours for it to dry. The filler was mixed and applied as directed. It was easy to work with as well and I let it dry over night. To reduce the high spots, I used my hand plane and it worked very well. It allowed me to put a sharp edge of the corner and required minimal sanding. I will definite purchase this product again.
