beezee, here is a document that addresses the problems in quite some depth.

Regrettably I cannot recommend a chemical. Chipco 26019 found much favor among commercial applicators. I have used 'Bordeau Mixture' with great success as a protectant. Please check on the legality of what you intend to do because these things are strictly regulated these days.
For 'Bordeau Mixture' check out this site.
