CPR And Return; New Products for Restoration That Bring Back the Original Beauty of Logs

Business Wire, Feb 3, 1999

BRIGHTON, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 3, 1999--Two new products for the log home industry were introduced today by Sashco. Return(TM) Stain and Finish Remover and CPR(TM) Log Cleaner & Brightener restore the beauty of weathered wood to its original grain.

Return(TM) Stain and Finish Remover is professional strength and removes existing coatings including old stains, varnishes, shellacs, urethanes & paints from log surfaces. Once applied, Return works in 5-20 minutes. Clean-up is simple, using hot, soapy water on brushes and equipment.

CPR(TM) Log Cleaner & Brightener revives un-coated, weathered logs back to their natural beauty. Used as a cleaner at regular strength, CPR cleans any moderate discoloration and surface dirt. As a brightener, (at high strength),CPR is an aggressive solution for logs that have become gray or dirty due to exposure to weather and ultra-violet rays (see picture). It won't harm wood fibers, grass, plants or shrubs. CPR is excellent for prepping bare logs prior to staining, and can be used to clean siding, fences and decks.

Wayne Summons, Vice President of R&D for Sashco stated "These products are advances in log home care and maintenance for their easy application and quick restorative action. The savings in time and costs are extraordinary for the log home owner, offering logs a fresh start and near original condition."

Both CPR and Return prepare logs perfectly for application of Sashco's Capture (TM)/Cascade(TM) stain system. This system features advanced technology that is highly elastic, transparent, weather-repellent, has superb ultra-violet protection and excellent adhesion.
