What happens here

The first step in restoring rotted wood involves using a liquid penetrating epoxy called 'Liquid Wood.' This product comes in two parts, 'Part A' and 'Part B,' which must be mixed together according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once mixed, apply the liquid to the rotted, spongy, and porous wood fibers. The 'Liquid Wood' will soak deep into the wood, effectively saturating the damaged areas. After it cures, it hardens into a solid plastic-like material, essentially petrifying the wood. This transformation makes the wood waterproof, weatherproof, and bug-proof, preventing any further deterioration from rot.

Goal: Saturate and harden rotted wood fibers to prevent further decay.

Tools and materials

  • Applicator — For applying 'Liquid Wood' to ensure deep penetration into the wood
  • Liquid Wood Abatron — To penetrate, consolidate, and harden rotted wood fibers
  • Mixing Cups — For accurately mixing the two parts of Liquid Wood
  • Mixing Sticks — To thoroughly combine the two parts of Liquid Wood

>> Yeah. Yeah. Basically, what we've done is we've boiled down wood repair into a very simple two-step process. It uses a liquid penetrating epoxy called liquid wood. This is a two-part liquid. You mix these two together and that soaks into the wood. So, you saturate those rotted, spongy, porous uh wood fibers with that liquid wood and then it hardens to a solid plastic. So, you're basically petrifying the wood uh with a plastic material that's going to be waterproof, weatherproof, bugproof, uh and it's going to prevent that wood from rotting any further. So, once you've saturated
