Not Rot Doctor, but 've used and experimented with CPES Penetrating Epoxy
Sealer. Its a 2 part, supposed epoxy, full of nasty solvents. Its very thin
viscosity and soaks into endgrain and face grain completely. I had great
hopes for its potential ability to "get in there" and stop moisture
movement.  However in my tests, without following it with a thicker bodied
epoxy or paint,  standing water quite happily migrated right into the wood
rather quickly. Shellac was a much better end grain sealer.

I'm curious what article Del is refering to...I'd like to check it out.
