Yesterday it was finally cool enough to expend the energy to cut a large
dead branch from the Maple tree near our house. The limb was about 6
inches in diameter. I cut the stub at an extreme angle so the water
would run off. This creating an oval area about 18" by 8" of exposed
wood.

This morning I was thinking about protecting the tree from rot where I
had cut the limb, and remember I had some Thompson water seal for decks
in the shed.

If I "water seal" the cut will that protect the tree from rot?

Any other suggestions?
