Product Review

Ipe Seal from DeckWise® is a wax emulsion sealer proven to increase the structural integrity of hardwood decking. Designed to prevent end checking (drying splits) in freshly sawn logs, lumber, turning blanks, and other exposed wood end and face grain. Ipe Seal creates a bond that extends the life of each deck board.

One quart of end sealer covers approximately 500 square feet of decking.

The sooner our sealer is applied to exposed end grain (and face grain of turnings and carvings), the more effective the coating will be. Application is recommended to the wood within 24 hours of cutting.

Our End Sealer may cause color or shading changes in wood, depending on species, dryness, handling or other natural variables. Test on ends of sample piece(s) and let stand for 48 hours if this possibility is of concern. See label for specific cautionary first aid instructions.
