Moisture Content Supplied ‘Green’ wet, we recommend drying the timber before installation, if you are using the cedar internally then it will need to be acclimatised for at least a week inside before installation. Cedar dries rapidly once the boards are separated from the pack, they will need warmth and air circulation to dry effectively. Boards should be stacked flat and evenly supported during drying.
Specie Western Red Cedar is sourced from the Pacific Northwest from Northern California to Alaska. This specie is classed as a Softwood but has very good durability due to a natural oil in it making it perfect for exterior applications. The timber machines well is stable and easy to work with.
Colour Ranges from light golden colour to mid to dark brown, some boards have a slight tint of red
Fixings Stainless steel nails must be used on Western Red Cedar to stop staining. Use of regular nails will over time result in black streaks running down the timber caused by the iron in the nail reacting with chemicals in the cedar.
Finishing for silvered weathered look 1) Apply Osmo 4001 WR Base Coat clear new wood protector immediately after installation or within the first few days
2) Leave the timber to naturally weather/silver
