what is the best stain for white pine logs. How often should you have to stain
I like to use Life Line made by Perma Chink. It is made for log homes, it is latex so it is easy to clean up and it is good for the wood. If you are stripping the house, be sure to apply a borate before staining, especially on White Pine. It will help stop log rot and keep the wood digesting bugs out.
