FX Lumber Guard XT
Applies easily. Seems like the manufacturer has tested the product with the appropriate labs. I hope that we never have to test on the applied materials. We like this product !

Just what we needed
The product is fantastic. Easy to install. I hope to never have to test it out. All the documents and tests will be good to have if the city needs to see what we treated the lumber with. Also, the team was outstanding. They answered every question we had.

FX Lumber Guard XT
Might be a good product. Unfortunately, product sheet only discusses its universal application. The technical sheet explains that you can only use WATER BASED products on it. I need a product that will accept an oil base stain.

I applied it. Application was very easy. I am using it on siding. I have top coated it with a clear sealer. There have been no fires in my neighborhood threatening my home, so I don't know how if it protects my home yet.
