Ropes were coated with juniper tar and, on the hull, a paste of tallow, charcoal dust and goat hair was applied to help stem leaks.

From the wood of the Juniperus oxycoedrus; an empyreumatic oil resembling liquid pitch, is obtained by dry distillation, this being named officinally, Huile de cade, or Oleum cadinum, otherwise "Juniper tar."

Juniper tar oil is known as "oil of Cade," and Birch tar is got from the Butcher's Broom.
