Testimonial 

Ron Cameron has been a valuable asset to our company for years. His products have always performed as promised, and he has always been available for questions. Ron brings us great knowledge of products and procedures related to all kinds of finishes. I rarely call that I don’t speak to him immediately, and when I do leave a message it is promptly returned. Ron and Finishes 1st have been the preferred supplier for Jeremiah Johnson Log Homes and Anderson Custom Homes for years, and we see no end to this great relationship."

Trapezoidal Backer Rod

Timber GripTM is our proprietary backer rod specially designed to perform on all full log, half log and sided log chink style homes. Timber Grip stays where it is put without the aid of adhesives, staples or fasteners. Timber Grip is manufactured in a wide variety of sizes to fit your home.

Timber Grip performs five key functions in the joint design:

1. It limits the amount of applied chink while maintaining proper material depth to width ratio.
2. It assists the chink in forming the proper shape for optimum adhesion.
3. It acts as a bond breaker to ensure two-point adhesion.
4. It provides insulation in the joint.
5. It strongly affects the aesthetic appearance of the finished joint.

Best, most fully featured backer rod on the market:

  • chemically inert polyethylene foam
  • closed cell material repels moisture

  • softer more resilient material
  • compresses to fit wide variety of log profiles
