Guy from Roanoke, Va writes

Will Bora-Care be effective if I apply it to the unfinished back side of a 1" oak board?

I have 1" thick material where I have already finished the face and sides of the board with 2 coats of Waterlox, but the back side is completely unfinished. Will the Bora-Care still penetrate into most of the material except for where the finish oil may have already penetrated?

Answer:

The Bora-Care will not penetrate the finished sides, you would need to treat the unfinished side with two coats of the product. You will probably need to wait about 20 minutes to an hour (depending on penetration speed) between coats. It will seep as far into the wood as it can, so just depending on how deep that finish you used on the other sides went, will determine how far the Bora-Care can penetrate.
