Our system setup is being overseen by a worldwide leader in acrylics and is being tested by one of their senior technical engineers to ensure we are providing the best acrylic stabilized wood product possible.

In our experience working with spalted maple, soft wood or burl wood,  we’ve found that there is always a risk of encountering soft areas, or irregular grain in the wood resulting in tearout and lifted grain. With stabilized wood, you can enjoy the beautiful detail of the spalted and softer woods, without the risk of ruining an expensive piece of wood.

Our new stabilized wood inventory will be online in our new Wood Stabilizer store by the end of November.  The new site is already up and running, so please visit us there. www.woodstabilizer.com
