Myth Buster!
Dark Stain does not = more log protection. True long term protection for logs only comes from Proper Preparation, High Quality Stain, and Ongoing Maintenance.

Cob Blasting VS. Pressure Washing - The Facts!
Log Home Owners...Here are the real answers to the questions about the best way to clean your home.
|
|
Corn Cob Blasting
|
|
|
- Corn cob media is classified as a "soft abrasive"
- Cob blasting is the process of blowing corn cob media through an industrial machine, removing finishes from logs
- Cob blasting is recommended to remove difficult finishes like paint and film forming stains from log surfaces
- Cob blasting does not kill mold and mildew
- Cob blasting does not protect logs against future mold/mildew growth
- Cob blasting may be too aggressive for many log homes
|
|
|
Pressure Washing
|
|
|
- Specialized log cleaners are applied and washed off to remove the existing finish
- These cleaners kill mold and mildew present on the logs as they remove the finish
- ALL leading log home stain manufacturers recommend prepping logs using this method
- Even after cob blasting we ALWAYS wash down the logs with these cleaners to kill mold/mildew
- Borate treatments are recommended for log homes and can only be effectively applied as a wet process
- The moisture content of the logs is raised for a short time as the logs dry. Usually within 5-7 days logs are well within staining guidelines of 18% or less.

Church Retreat Restoration.
Oil based stains tend to turn dark over the years. The linseed oil base can become a "food" for mold and mildew. If left untreated the logs will begin to deteriorate leading to even more costly repairs. This project was begun in time. So far there seems to be no log repair.
The log rails were put up prior to stripping the old stain. This allows us to take care of everything at the same time.

"Wilderness" Log Home Restoration
If your home looks like this restore it now before rot begins!
Another example of failed oil based stain. The homeowners wanted to have a lighter, more natural look to their log home. Even though the stain was failed the logs had not begun to rot yet. By having the restoration done right away the logs are now protected saving a lot of costly repairs in the future.
