All ActivityMost RecentMost LikesSolutionsRe: Protecting Exposed WoodI used to do industrial painting for a living and the key to longevity is always prep and primer. Here is a durable inexpensive solution. Surface must be dry. Wire brush with the grain as much as possible to get rid of loose paint. Then sand lightly with about a 120 grit, I prefer the sponge blocks. Mask everything off then apply a good oil based primer, make sure it is ok for wood. Let dry per spec on can. Then spray with automotive undercoating available at auto parts store,, move the can prior to pulling the trigger to avoid drips. Inexpensive, ultra durable, resistant to road salts and mag chloride, excellent sealer.
