Teak oil recommendations?

Post by IRGuy »

As work progresses on "Phoenix" I am replacing a few pieces of exterior teak.. which I don't want to varnish.

Over the years I have heard lots of mumbo jumbo about which teak treatment is best. What do the faithful have to say about which product is recommended?

Thanks

IRGuy,
Tip Top teak is the best. The old Deck's oile 2 part product worked for me but I haven't been able to find it here in FL for a long time.

That was my sarcastic attempt at noting -- they are poor in customer service -- no response at all!
