Moreover, how do I protect my bamboo fence?

The number one way to protect your outdoor bamboo fencing is to coat it with a wood protectant. Coat your fencing right after setting it up so it will be protected from the start. We recommend using TWP (Total Wood Protectant) to shield your bamboo from UV rays, rain, sleet, ice, and other detrimental causes.

Additionally, how do you seal bamboo?

  1. Equip a power sander with 60-grit sandpaper.
  2. Exchange the 60-grit sandpaper with 100-grit.
  3. Wipe the bamboo surface with tack cloths; this is critical as sawdust will interfere with the application process.

  5. Apply a solvent-based wood sealer to the bamboo, using the china brush.
