Smith's Original Clear Penetrating Epoxy Sealer (CPES) restores the wood by penetrating in and rebinding the wood fibers together, resolidifying it and impregnating the wood with epoxy resin so that it will be impervious to ever rotting again. Our revolutionary sealer restores dry rotted wood without the need to replace, and preserves new wood so that it will never rot. No other product comes close to the ability of Smith's CPES to penetrate and saturate wood. It is also an excellent primer, laminating the first coat of paint or varnish down to the now preserved wood. The following are the six basic steps to restoring rotted wood: 1) Remove any old coatings, and dry the wood. 2) Clean off any very crumbly material. 3) Saturate the wood with Smith's Clear Penetrating Epoxy Sealer, applying until it stops soaking in and a thin sheen is acheived. 4) Once the solvents have evaporated (24 - 72 hrs), apply the Filler. 5) After 24 hours, sand Filler to shape. 6) Before painting, apply a light primer coat of the CPES. CPES (Clear Penetrating Epoxy Sealer) and Smith's Epoxy Fill-it are sold on Amazon exclusively by TIMBERCRAFT.

I use this product on an 40 foot wooden yawl and have always been satisfied with the results. Very thin and soaks into the wood, strengthens it, and stops or prevents rot.

This product works great to stabilize and reinforce rotten or deteriorated wood. I used it to stabilize a rotted rim joist that couldn't be removed/replaced. I was able to soak the rotten wood with this epoxy and after it cured the wood was waterproof and much harder to the touch. Then I was able to improve the flashing metals to further prevent deterioration.

The product worked as advertised. I used it to seal a wooden sill plate in a garage that was being repeatedly soaked by wind-blown rain. After removing the part of the wall covering the sill plate, I allowed it to dry out and applied the epoxy. It soaked right in. I bought the 2-quart size, and was able to put four and a half coats on about 40 feet of sill plate 2x4. However, I was only applying it to the top and one side, and hoping that I was applying enough excess for it to run under and behind the sill plate. Maybe if the wall is still standing in ten years, I'll know I did a good job. I had no problems at all with the product, and used a cheap disposable brush.

It works very well and is fool proof to apply if it were cheaper and I would apply it to every project before my actual finish

Bought this to seal the wood for a new transom on an aluminum boat. Very easy to work with. After 3 coats it remained on the surface indicating wood is sealed. Finished with 3 coats of Marine Poly spar varnish. Warm weather formula worked fine, I applied in weather in the range of 75 F daytime and 45 F overnight. Cured well, a little quicker than expected but still plenty of time to get good coating.
