Wood juice
« on: November 30, 2010, 02:23:43 PM »
I was curious if anyone here has ever tried Wood Juice from woodcraft to stabilize wood? Sounds like it is made for dry to semi-dry wood.

If you are talking about stabilizing funky wood, I don't think this will do the job.  It looks like it is more for slightly green wood that the moisture content is still too high to work with.

Not worth the time, money and effort.  True stabilizing involves totally impregnating the wood with acrylic resins under heat and pressure.  The various solutions on the market aren't going to do the same thing or even close.
