Log Home Terminology

Log Jam

- Recognized industry standard for synthetic chinking

- Superior elasticity – won't tear, preventing weather and insect infiltration

- Limited lifetime warranty

- Water-based – easy to apply and clean up

- Freeze-thaw stable

Below are Some Basic Application Guidelines:

Best results are obtained when Log Jam is applied to clean, dry, stained wood.
Install a bond breaker before Log Jam is applied. Backer rod, Grip Strip, and bond-breaking tape perform this function well. If Log Jam is applied over white styrene bead-board, it is best to cover the bead-board with polyester tape (to prevent adhesion to the beadboard). We do not recommend the use of blue or pink extruded polystyrene board.
Tool the Log Jam to ensure good contact with the log surfaces, especially to the upper log; this will greatly aid adhesion.
