Having said this, not all waterproofing products are designed in the same way. With any waterproof surface, it is crucial that it is highly breathable. While water must be prevented from entering the surface, if the treatment is not breathable, any moisture inside the surface will become trapped. Eventually, the moisture will build-up inside the material until it causes the waterproofing treatment to fail. A wood 'sealer' like many sealing products generally has low breathability, as it creates a film on the surface of the wood. This film can completely prevent moisture from travelling through the surface, keeping moisture out but also trapping moisture in. Due to the film that is created, this moisture eventually causes the film to burst, leaving the wood unprotected once again. The film that is created by sealers also provides the added risk of the film peeling, flaking or bursting when exposed to weathering. Some products require two coats for maximum protection while others only require one. So, make sure you look at this information before you make up your mind. Details of the Formula
