I was moving an Autumn Blaze Maple to a job site and the bark got damaged.
Has any one successfully repaired bark on a tree?

Thanks Kelly
 

You can't repair the damaged bark, but you can make clean edges by tracing the loose bark with a utility knife. This will aid callus growth, but it's still a maple, weak compartmentalizer. Damage and decay will always be there. Do not treat the wound with anything.

Some pics of damage and tree size may help further.
