Thanks again Michael

I'm assuming the piece of bark you apply never actually lives.
I was just wondering if one could apply a piece of bark something like a
skin graft in humans by cutting off a piece of bark and applying it directly
onto the wound, then applying sealant over top of it.

Sounds possible in theory !

Thanks Michael

Can you please elaborate on your "rebark" technique ?
Does this bark patch continue to live, or does it die off ?

Mark:

This is purely a cosmetic process. After applying the cut paste or putty, I
press thin piece of bark onto the sealant. It works quite nicely as a
disguise.

BTW: As many of you probably know, many of the Japanese sealants contain
fungicides.

Cordially,

Michael
