Applying Anchorseal

[4x4American]

Well boys, I done figured out the answer to my conundrum, and I have to say it's simple, clean, quick, and effective.  Anyone have any guesses while I upload the pictures?

I vote bonfire, or you cut it open with your sawmill.....

I just spritzed it on.  I went into the garage to get a paint brush and roller, when I happened to see a spritz bottle and I threw that in my truck as well.  As it turns out I didn't need to use the brush or roller.  I coated both ends of 7 smaller diameter logs in one bottle in maybe 10 min.  The only problem I had was the head sucking it up the tube, for the first while it bounced back quick, but then it would take a second for the plunger to bounce back.  I'm gonna try and find a spritzer with a bigger straw I think that would help.  But even still it beat painting it on, and I had hardly any waste.  I don't wanna break my arm patting myself on the back, but I'm pretty much a big hero on account of this.   ;D

Don't get Jake started on bonfires.  That boy can make a bonfire.  When you stoke one with a front end loader with slabs from the grapple, you can make quite the conflagration.

I've never had a lot of logs to do, so I've always used just cheap 2" or 3" chip brushes.  Leave 'em right in the bucket and wear nitril gloves.

HF has a 4" roller with tray and extra rollers for almost nothing. Little tin foil in tray, and you can coat all your log ends in a few minutes keeping tray clean.

Saving every drop and 30 min of extra work vs. rolling on like crazy , the math makes it an choice easy for me. Plus I heard grass likes the taste of anchor seal, could just be a rumor.

Do what you want, I dont wanna be carrying 5 things at once and trying to keep the roller wet and all that, I like that spritzer, I only have to carry one thing and no mess and its fast and accurate

So.... Where does one buy a spritzer bottle ?

[4x4American]

Any general store, I got this Zep one from the Zep guy who came to our shop, I believe, or maybe Lowe's/Home Depot, I know that I bought one, and got the other for free at work after my boss bought some Zep degreaser and that hand soap. Prolly the Wal Mart has some...it's a spritzer bottle, they're a dime a dozen!  I wouldn't get anything less than a commercial one though.
