Kiln Drying During the process of Kiln Drying, lumber is separated by slats or “sticks” to ensure proper and consistent movement of air around and between the boards. It should be noted that this process may create what the industry calls “sticker” marks. These marks will fade, depending on the sun exposure this can happen fairly quickly, but could take several weeks. If the appearance of the “sticker” marks is a concern we recommend waiting for them to fade before staining or sealing the boards.
