Yesterday I scored a boot load of Mango from a tree that had been recently been felled. When I went to stick some of Carbatec's "End Sealer" on the pieces, I found that the almost full six month old batch had gone fairly solid in the container. I note that Carbatec says that the product has a shelf life of only 12 months, so maybe my lot had been sitting around for quite a while.
So a few questions before I go and buy another container of the Carbatec product. What are the commercially available alternatives to the Carbatec End Sealer?
A bloke I met at the Maleny woodworking show last year reckoned he uses one of the Lanotec products as a green wood end grain sealer, but he didn't tell me which specific Lanotec product ..... and I haven't found a Lanotec product in the local rural supplies store that looks like it might be suitable. Any ideas ?
I then wondered whether it would be practical to make your own End Sealer - maybe a blend of Mineral Turps and Paraffin Wax ???? Does anyone make their own End Sealer ?
Regards,
Roy
