[QUOTE="ChileanTaco, post: 2044036, member: 118921"] [USER=114539]@xp29[/USER] One could, but I'm not sure how much that helps (also, as I'm doing a lot of crafts including woodwork): - What we want to get rid of for the enclosure is basically the salt from the driftwood (if it's driftwood found on the ocean shore which I assume), and possible eggs from invertebrates. Both should be gone with scrubbing and baking. (I wouldn't assume such as molt on the driftwood.) - If not baked but only sealed, insects that are inside or develop from eggs will eat through the sealer. Happened to me with some crafts even sealed with "triple thick" varnish: suddenly holes and a bit of sawdust on the floor... - I don't know how well this really holds under the strong UV in the enclosure. If, I would use something made for "outdoor use". So I think the only thing that would be a reason for applying a sealer would be to be able to clean it more easily in case of the dragon having parasites. (I hadn't used any and personally, I would not. Also in tanks/enclosures for other species I did not.) Exactly. Baking is not for drying something! [/QUOTE]
