To seal or not to seal, that is the question.

Just call me a big dummy. I am making a building out of balsa wood. Should I seal the wood before or after painting, and if so, what kind of sealer, and made by who?

It’s been a while since I built with balsa, but I believe there is a sealer made specifically for balsa. Check with a hobby shop that sells RC aircraft, they should be able to help you. Seal the balsa before painting.

Cant remember the name of the product, but any RC shop that carries Hangar 9 Products will have some good sealers! They will also have other brands. Best bet is just drop by a shop and pick thier brain.

I am going to assume that you are both guys. With that said, I’ll say, “Thank you Guys.”
