I'm no Pro on this, but I followed the Instructional Flyer on Keiki Pro, and they mentioned Catts on there. Read on for that info.
I understand it's good for all. Can be used as a 'spray' type too. As it's a liquid. I'm sure it's good for all chids.
Keikipro ?

My daughter said "What do you want for your birthday?" I said "Keikipro." Worked for me. Carol

Has anyone used the Stoprot? I'm tempted to try that. I like the fact that it will not wash off.

What is a good product to seal off or treat wounds with?

I just lost a vanda from some type of rot. It just dropped it's leaves and the stem turned black in just a couple days. I cut the stems off and the only thing I had in the house was "Dragons Blood". I put it on the stump and it looks OK, no more rot, but no leaves. It has lots of roots and they turn green when I water them. It sits on my deck where it may be a little too cold at night, about 55 or 60 but I have nothing to loose in trying. If it grows more leaves, it may ve 10 years before I see blooms.

I'm using cinnamon powder: easy and cheap. Get stuck on the wet wounds and start to dry them of. If you dont have any serious problem you should give it a try

If you need it to be water-proof i've read here you may mix it with something hydrophobic as cooking oil

Dear Howard.
I have only just joined the Orchid Board, and picked up on this tuition of yours above,(today) but everything has been removed, and I am very interested in the Keiki paste method. Could you repeat it again for me.

If I ever want to do this I know where to come & look! Thank you very much Howard!

Hi Howard,
It is more than a year ago you posted this excellent explanation. I can no longer see the photos from the beginning of your post as there's a problem with photobucket....? is there any chance of you refreshing? thanks in advance as this really interests me for knowledge purposes but I really can't remember alot! and now can't 'look' anymore to 'refresh the memory' as pics no longer available

I agree! I think that cinnamon + making sure the water doesn't stagnate (ie: have good air circulation so roots dry fast) is/was your biggest issue with the plant in question, and it's got loads of new roots as you say so no probs ! let your plant do what it's doing (roots) new leaves will follow & blooms too. ... Good luck!
I'm sure you'll 'win' in the end & it's sounding really good! you are a vanda 'expert' having so many...
Keep us posted!
and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you on this one

Sorry gang! Since the thread was so old I probably deleted the pics from my Photobucket page. I never expected such interest in something I had done,,,,, WOW!!!! If you could all give me a couple of days, I promise to re-shot the pics or maybe I saved them somewhere.
