My husband and I built our log home in northern MN. I’m looking for a home remedy for staining / preserving our logs. Do we use only a stain or a combination of linseed,stain for pigment with a turbintine for bugs. What is best combination to use?
I do not have a ”home remedy’. DO NOT use linseed oil. It will turn the logs black over time. As for the turpintine, I wouldn’t! By a good quility log home stain. The latex is perfectly safe.
