Pine Tar

Pine tar is a dark, tacky substance produced when heat and pressure are applied to pine wood to decompose it. When you use pine tar on the exterior of outbuildings, barns, decks, porches, or fences, it creates a stain-like finish. Depending on the species of pine used, tar may have a different color and odor. Pine Tar is used as a waterproofing agent, medicinal product etc.
