Log caulking is used to seal checks/cracks that may permit rain or insects to penetrate down into the log or around door and window openings, notched corners, and between log courses as a preventative measure to stop air infiltration.

Conceal Textured Caulk delivers performance that’s hard to see. Conceal’s 7 colors blend in with the most popular stains used on log homes, and Conceal’s light texture simulates the natural roughness of wood. The combination of color and texture makes it hard to see where the caulking ends and the logs begin. Instead, they just blend together.

“Conceal cleans up and trowels better than any other caulk I’ve used. It probably saved me 20% of my time.”
Steve Gallaway, Roche Jaune Chinking

“My crew and I really like the tooling characteristics of Conceal—it’s quick, clean, and easy to use.”
Mark Venery, North Country Log Works

“We like it a lot. We will use a lot of it, especially on our Thermography work. . . where customers want the sealant to be unnoticeable.”
Tracy Hansen, Stormbusters

Some Notes on Joint Design
Caulking joint width should be between 1/4" and 2" and 4 times the anticipated movement. For joints 1" or more, the depth should be 3/8" to 1/2". The depth of joints less than 1" wide should be half the width but no less than 1/4". (Caulking joint depth should be 1/4"-1/2".)

When Stacker is used as an exterior sealant, follow directions below:

The depth of Stacker, when used this way should be between 1/4" and 1/2". 

Joint width should be no greater that 2 inches. 

Ensure 2-point adhesion by using a bond-breaker (i.e. backer rod or mylar tape). 

Allow Stacker to cure at least 24 hours before exposure to water; 2-3 days may be required for areas with high humidity and/or low temperatures. 

Protect Stacker with a plastic sheet if rain is probable within 2-3 days.5-year limited warranty

Take the total number of linear feet that you wish to caulk and divide it by the lineal footage of the size of caulking bead located on Caulk Estimator.    Example:  If you need to fill an area that takes a 1/4" x 1/4" bead of caulk and you have 2300 linear feet to fill.

2300' ÷ 24'= 95.83 or 96 tubes of caulking then divide the number of tubes by the number of tubes in a case.  96 ÷ 12 = 8 cases. You might want to order extra tubes just in case?

To Convert Gallons of Caulking or Chinking to Cases
10.5 oz. size tube = Total gallons _____ divided by .082 = _____ cases/tubes.
30 oz. size tube = Total gallons _____ divided by 2.34 = _____ cases/tubes.

To Convert Gallons to Tubes: Total gallons _____ X 128(oz.) = _____ Total oz. Then divide the Total oz. by the tube size:10.5(oz.) or 30(oz.). = The Number of Tubes______________.

To figure cases:
10.5(oz.) =_____ No. of tubes divided by 12 (cs.) = _____ Cs
30(oz.) = ______ No. of tubes divided by 10 (Cs) = _____ Cs

Save time, money and product!
The Caulk Saver allows you to save your leftover caulk, adhesives, silicones, glues, cements or any product that comes in a similar type container or tube to have easy access when you need it again.

After 30 years of using caulk for home and Business, I found:
1.) Every time I use caulk, I needed to find something to penetrate the caulk membrane.
2.) When there is caulk leftover, I needed to find something with which to seal it in order to use the caulk again. This might be a piece of wire, a nail, screw, dowel, or something similar.
3.) Unfortunately, when I go back to use the caulk, it has usually hardened. Whatever I used to seal the caulk gets stuck and becomes difficult (if not impossible) to pull out of the neck (stem). Many times I end up throwing the container away, wasting the leftover caulk.

What is it?
The Caulk Saver is a unique tool designed to: a) puncture the membrane of caulk at the base of the neck of the caulk tube container; and b) to seal the neck (stem) of the container to preserve the caulk for the next use. Although this is called “The Caulk Saver”, it can be used with any product that comes in a similar tubular container design.

How does it work?
After cutting the neck of a caulk tube, the 3-inch by 1/8-inch stem of The Caulk Saver is inserted into the hole in the stem of the tube. By pushing it down, it penetrates the caulk membrane. The Caulk Saver is then removed. This allows the caulk to flow into the stem of the tube.

After using the caulk, the Caulk Saver is placed back into the stem of the container and pushed down to the plastic threads. The Caulk Saver is then turned clockwise into the stem of the tube, 3 or 4 times only, until the plastic threads seals the stem. This seals the tube until the next time the caulk is needed.

The next time the caulk is used, even if it has been left to harden in the stem of the tube, simply unscrew it. The threads cut through the hardened caulk, once again, allowing the caulk to flow into the stem of the tube.

The Caulk Saver can be used over and over again.
