I like the look of oiled Teak. Varnish is nice, but too much work and when it gets old, look like cancer pealing. Oiled teak look great but doe snot hold long in weather. I tried this Teaqua, oil, seal, conditioner. WORK GREAT.
Suppose to last the whole season with one application. I tried a small bit on my brightwork after some light sanding to get the old mess off. LOOKS GREAT still after 4 months, like I put it on yesterday.
I am getting a small electric sander to clean the old varnish and stuff off the rest of the brightwork and will apply Teaqua on all exterior wood surfaces. I tried it on a couple of pieces of trim that were not Teak and they came out looking like Teak.
