Indoor use as a backsplash is fine, but as with all natural wood products, there is some inherent risk of staining and rot. Wood sealers and varnish can provide protection against this. They will both provide protection, but can alter the appearance of the wood planks. There are two main types of wood protectants: sealers and varnish. Varnish penetrates the wood and protects from within by filling all pores and cavities with a protectant. Sealers retain the natural appearance of the wood as much as possible. Sealers, such as Thompson’s® Water Seal® Waterproofer Plus Clear Wood Protector or Cabot® Waterproofing Silicone Sealer (and similar products), offer moderate protection. Follow manufacturer’s directions. Wood varnish is a durable coating that bonds to the wood surface. These products slightly darken the wood color and have a semi-gloss finish. Wood varnishes, such as Minwax® Polycrylic® Protective Finish or Cabot® Spar Varnish Semi-Gloss (and similar products), provide a high level of stain protection. Follow manufacturer’s directions.
Rustic Grove is manufactured for indoor use only.
We recommend a minimum 6-inch space between the heat source or burner and the installed wood planks. You may also refer to your stoves (or other heat source) manufacturer for specific information.
You can use pre-manufactured wood trims found in the retailer’s millwork section or create your own trim pieces from the Rustic Grove plank or panel material.
To seal your planks and panels, use a good wood sealer or polyurethane finish to protect the wood. Follow the manufacturer’s directions. Sealers and polyurethane finishes can deepen and darken the color of the wood. Choose from finishes that can leave a high sheen or glossy appearance, or satin finishes, much like paints.
Yes you can if you’d like. The Mixed Brown planks are finished with an oil-based stain, so you’ll need to use an oil-based paint. We recommend using a darker color otherwise, multiple coats will be needed to hide the original color. The three gray-colored planks are finished with a water-based stain, so you’ll need to use a water-based/latex paint with them.
