Cleaning and Preparing Reclaimed Wood

Whatever the source of your reclaimed wood, there are a few tips and tricks for using this type of wood. If you use reclaimed barn wood, it may have been in the elements for 100 years or more. The reclaimed wood may be covered in dirt, dead bugs, amongst other things. Because of this, you will need to first clean it. Start by using a stiff nylon bristle brush and give the wood a brisk rub down. This will help get rid of any loose dirt. Follow this up with a quick spray with an air hose to clean off the finer particles of dirt. Some people like to clean the reclaimed wood with a high-pressure water sprayer, but you have to be careful when doing this, or you may risk damaging the reclaimed wood. It's always good to test a piece of reclaimed wood first.
