Grey Pine Tar Vitriol Test Kit

I have been a customer of Sage restoration since 2018. Have used their paint, putty and other linseed oil products regularly, in fact daily during the week. Working with natural products can have a few more challenges, however I have received expert advice from both Michael and John and have been extremely happy with the results. For example, I had a roofer paint my steel barn roof every few years with whatever environmentally unfriendly paint he normally used. It didn't last. I convinced him to use the Allback paint and it has lasted a lot longer, and it still looks great. We have used the pine tar carried by Sage Restoration instead of using pressure treated wood which is bad for the environment. I have painted the inside of my house, our barn windows and many many projects, I could go on and on. But anyway if you care about not putting nasty chemicals onto the walls of your home or other projects, I highly recommend the products that Sage Restoration carries. As an added bonus their shipping is very quick, often the next day !!

I have been thrilled with the products I have purchased for our projects around our home and the advice/service from the Sage Restoration Team has been incredible. Extending the life of our cedar deck and shed is extremely important to us for three significant reasons. I'm proud of my work and want it to last as long as possible, I want to use natural products that won't harm the environment and I want the end result to look great. Sage products not only enable me to reach these goals, they go above and beyond expectations. The added bonus is how easy the products are to use. I'm so impressed, I know I will use linseed oils, paints, putty and other products when I build future outside projects or give tired projects a new lease on life. Thank you so much for providing a tried and true alternative that won't harm us, future generations or the planet!

We used all sage restoration products on our pack porch. The boards were aged in the sun for a few weeks after construction, then scrubbed with linseed oil soap. Primed with raw linseed oil after drying and then treated with Dalbrand Tratjara pine tar mixed with boiled linseed oil. The black border boards were treated Svartjara pine tar mixed with the same. It’s easy to use, easy to apply, durable and the results speak for themselves. We’ve tried to use various wax stains, or acrylic coatings in the past which ultimately resulted in rebuilding the entire project after the boards shrank/rotted. If you want a durable, beautiful finish that will keep your wood vibrant and sturdy Sage restoration is the way to go.

I used the pine tar and raw linseed oil mix on the wooden posts and floor joists in my basement to prevent mold and inhibit moisture. Easy to apply, absorbed well into the pine and cedar wood which dates back to 1880 when my log farmhouse was built.

I will be in touch when I have some interior painting needed, I like the choice of colours you supply.
