For sealing to wood, can you recommend a primer?

Any primer you wish. The silicone will stick to anything and seal perfectly. Keep in mind that nothing will stick to the silicone, including paint; once the silicone is cured it repels everything. Even oil based paints. You can not paint or seal this silicone. Most primers and varnishes are not "waterproof". The only paint I know of that's submersably waterproof is pool paint. You'd prime, paint, then silicone if you need a leak-proof joint, otherwise use a regular caulk.

It probably wouldn't hurt to use a wood sealant, even if using the rings indoors, as the wood will start to absorb dirt/oils from your hands. A normal wood sealer should work.

No, this product is not a base for primer and paint. It is a natural weathering preservative. If you want the wood siding to look "aged" then use it. If you want to prime & paint for a "finished" look then use primer and paint.

If you use a good primer before you paint, it should be okay. I recommend Stix primer by Benjamin Moore. I work in a hardware store that sells paint, and this is a good product for your project.

I used this product on new wood with no sealant. I would contact the company direct to see if can be used on treated wood.

I used a spray-on asphalt primer on the areas of metal flashing and aged peel and seal that I was covering up/repairing. Probably not necessary when applying to new OSB. I'd rather apply this product to the smooth side of OSB for a more positive grip and smoother finish surface.

A plastic welding epoxy putty would work better if it is a crack in the plastic.You would want to roughen up and then clean the area first before you seal it over.

several coats of clear polyurethane should be a good sealant. I recommend 5-6 light coats. Although I haven't had the item outside for long so I can't speak to the durability

use 3m 5200 sealant. if you need it to set up faster then i would recommend 3m 4200. any marine store carries these.

wood is pores, it traps air, oils,moisture, and such. was it a new top ? or had it been out doors and just re coated with this product. depending on the type of wood. I have found that using just a good clear wood sealer, letting it soak in real good and letting it sit for at least 72 hours or more helps as well as making sure the wood even with out sealer is good and dry before coating. as well even if you coat just the top, it being out side it will draw moisture from the bottom as well. using a good sealer on all areas not being coated with this product also helps. that is what generally causes any wood finish to fail being exposed to the out doors. wood is pores, it traps air, oils,moisture, and such. was it a new top ? or had it been out doors and just re coated with this product. depending on the type of wood.

This is laminated wood, so it is easy to wipe up/off. I don't think you need to separately seal it. But if so, a water sealant should be adequate, but make sure it is oil based so it will adhere to the laminated surface.

Hello, I would suggest to use a clear two part epoxy for your application. The glue sticks will adhere wood and acrylic but strength would be minimal due to the non-porosity surface of the acrylic.

I use my sealer to seal terra cotta pots and I used sponge applicators to apply it. Worked great!!

No idea because I am way more concerned about preserving the logs from checking so I apply the sealer liberally. Two coats of anchor seal has the same prtection as four coats of latex primer.

I used a primer first just becase I was priming the rest of the room. I don't see any problem with just painting over it. It is vinyl and heavy enough paper to not have any problems.

I used it on a child's riding toy. Has withstood the rigors of that. Just make sure each coat is light and allowed to completely dry. I did not use a primer.

Hi Karen,This piece doesn't have any sort of sealant on it. The wood is fairly light and you should be able to stain it but don't take my word on that. I don't do much on that front.
