I use a few sealant as I have yet to find a multipurpose one that really does it all. Like Ron I don't seal roots, just make very clean cuts with sharp tools.
My favorite as of late is the stuff attached. It's more like a glue than a paste and dries to a rubbery sort of texture. It's stopped pines from bleeding out in the summer during some heavy chops. If I could only have one this would be it.
I also have a more typical paste called 'top jin'. It is the second photo and goes on paste like and dries and sticks pretty well but needs more time than the attached stuff to dry completely before it gets wet.
Hope this helps.
