LIFELINE ULTRA-2

The Highest Durability Stain and Finish for Your Home

Lifeline Ultra-2 - the two-coat application helps to ensure consistent color development on your walls. From the day that you apply it to the many years of durability that you get from it, this wood stain will distinguish your home.
premium log home stain and finish

A protective clear coat of Lifeline Advance Gloss or Satin adds depth and clarity to the wood grain. The smooth surface of the clear coat repels dirt and dust, and makes walls easier to clean when cleaning becomes necessary. Like all Lifeline finishes, it is breathable, waterborne, and easy to work with.

Lifeline Ultra-2 is the first component of our two-component exterior wood finish system. The second component is a clear topcoat of Lifeline Advance Gloss or Satin. We have found that there are very distinct functional differences between the durability and appearance functions of stains and clear topcoats.

The stain system (Lifeline Ultra-2 and Lifeline Advance) is greater than the sum of its individual components. This is because the formulations of the two components are significantly different. Each is formulated to perform separate but complementary functions to the other.

Dry logs are happy logs

Log ends extended beyond the roof lines are exposed to excessive moisture. Log ends wick in 10 times the moisture of the curved section of logs. Use of a log end seal is needed to prevent log end failure.

Cutting log ends off past the roof line should be considered.

Call Western Log Home Restoration with questions. 888-231-2412



What are log checks?

Checks are cracks that split open on logs. Logs try to equalize with outside humidity. Logs should have a moisture content under 20 percent
.

Where your logs were dried or kiln-dried before your structure was built.

Checks should be sealed if over 1/4" wide and on the top/curved section of the log.
Use Permachink log check to seal these areas.

Water can settle in these open checks. Checks near windows can cause more problems.


Parts of a log...what your log cabin or home are made of

Outer Bark:

The layer that protects the log

Inner Bark or Phloem section that carries food to the tree

The cambium section that creates new bark

Sapwood or Xylem carries the water to the rest of the tree

Heartwood central section of the tree (dead sapwood)

Log Home Restoration

Log Home Restoration

Don't use oil-based stain on your log home! Oil feeds mildew. Direct sunlight pulls the oil out, and the rain accelerates the damage. Use a high-quality Permachink sealer. These sealers are designed for log homes. They allow moisture to escape from the logs, yet are water-repellent. Here are the before and after restoration pictures. 888-231-2412
