Most of the time we fill in the pioneer distressing with clearcoat [no stain] to maintain the character/history while making practical/easy to clean/durable ect. However, some customers really want to feel the original distressing, in which case offer a simple polyurethane finish [no epoxy filling], which is what this desk customer opted for. While less practical, there is something cool about the original texture of the distressing being maintained. See pics!

Old Growth Pine is a lot different than new pine. In original natural Ontario forests the trees would grow taller rather than wider [although wider as well] so the grain was tight. New pine is commercially grown so the trees are space further apart [allowing for more sunlight] so the trees grows a lot quicker. Since noone is going to wait 100 years to harvest their bush there won’t be wood like this ever again, especially combined with the pioneer distressing. This Mississauga customer opted for old growth pine for their reclaimed wood harvest table project:
