Use nothing, leave the wound bare.
The outdated practice of using bitumen/tar has been found to actually seal in fungal spores and bacteria, hence accelerating decay/rot.
So long as the cut is made correctly, allowing the wound wood to heal naturaly, the CODIT system will help to ensure minimal decay.
