Now since this sucks up the sealer should I only soak them for maybe 30-60 seconds. I'm using 60/40 Boiled Linseed/Mineral Spirits to seal.
I may try the epoxy sealer on a couple just to experiment and see what I like better. I did play around w/ the E-tex lite, nice finish but a PITA to work w/ if you don't have a spinner. I'm kinda diggin the Devcon 2 30-minute stuff.
I just finished off the last of my NJ kits last night, just have to dress up some tail hooks for them, and getting ready to paint up my 1st ones from scratch.

I'm not sure what type of protection 30-60 seconds will provide, no time for the wood to soak up sealer which is really what you want. I leave in sealer for 24 hrs, wipe with a cloth and let sit. I have noticed that letting them dry in a well heated room does help after a few days in lessing the weight. I'll wait another couple days before priming.

You guys are talking different types of sealers and they are really very different and I would guess they need to be applied differently as well...
I have not used the boiled lineseed mix but I am sure someone that uses that mix can tell you how long to soak them....
