Oak Restorer-CW is a blend of buffered carbonate, bicarbonate and proprietary surfactants.
It was developed to remove tartrate crystals, wine color, protein and organic soils, and to clean barrels using cold water (68-86°F/20-30°C) water.
This fast dissolving formulation contains 100% active components for advanced cleaning action compared with carbonates alone. By thoroughly cleaning the internal contact surface you can extend the working life of your oak (barrels and staves).

Barrel sealer wax.
Mineral wax - Paraffin. Made in Germany.
Instructions:
Mark the leak with pencil or chalk. Dry the area around the leak as well as you can. A heat gun or blow dryer can be used. You may want to sand the area around the leak with rough sand paper to help the wax adhere to the barrel.
Knead a small piece of barrel wax in your hand to warm and soften it. You can also melt the wax and drip it onto problem area. Apply a small amount to the leak. Rub the wax into the wood. Remove excess wax. Re-apply as needed.
