ll ends and ripped/exposed armadillo boards must be sealed using armadillo end sealer so
as not to void warranty. Proof of purchase is required.
We recommend that all board ends, including ripped/exposed Armadillo board cores, be sealed using
Extreme Moisture Repellant End Board Sealer. Sealer helps prevent moisture absorption and should be
applied thick enough to exposed area to provide an even coat. Variation or changes in board colors does
occur. We recommend laying out your deck boards before installation begins.
