Before starting, be sure to clean the surface area with a good detergent and water rinse, removing any dirt, soap, or oily debris. If you choose to sand badly weathered areas, be sure to clean and clear after sanding. Although TeaQua covers weathered wood extremely well, giving a darker look, pre-sanded teak will always look best when treated. Using a good teak cleaner is recommended for untreated surfaces or surfaces that have not been treated for a long period of time. You may also use a bronze brush or pad to clean and prep the surface before coating. Remember that TeaQua can penetrate most existing treatments except those that are "hard" in nature such as varnish or the like. Be sure to cover or tape those surfaces that you do not wish to coat! Keep a damp water wet cloth close by for simple wipe up.  

The secret to TeaQua success is in its excellent spread ability and superior penetration properties. Using a brush or roller (for large areas) spread TeaQua evenly with the grain. Only a small amount is necessary to wet out a large area. TeaQua has a cream like consistency that will appear to look brown in color. However, TeaQua is translucent when applying. Coverage is aproximately 40-60 square feet per quart dependent upon age and dryness. TeaQua oil will penetrate easily into the teak surface. You will observe penetration as you continue to apply. Allow at least one half hour before applying any additional coating. Be sure that the initial application has been absorbed, smoothing out any "shiny" spots as you go. You may also use a cloth to easily apply by rubbing the formula for a classic "rubbed wood" look. If you so desire (although not completely necessary) apply a second coat after the first has been absorbed. Allow at least one day before rinsing.
 Clean-up is easy with soap and water. Any  dried liquid may be cleaned with a paint remover.

Boating Life Article June 2004 TeaQua Teak Oil Teak Treatment and Teak Sealer

After a season of hard use, a teak swim platform starts to look like driftwood. Brightwork around the boat, attractive when new, also loses its luster when sanding and sealing take up valuable boating time. But with the right teak oil -- and a can-do attitude -- few jobs bring more satisfaction than restoring the rich grain and color of wood.

One way to resurface teak is with a two-part polymer finish like Cetol, available from westmarine or boatersworld  Pigment in the mixture colors sun-bleached wood, restoring a more natural tone. Cetol leaves a hard, impermeable surface with a deep luster and a superior ability to shed water. Before applying, you'll have to scrub the teak with detergent to loosen as much grain-embedded grime as possible. Then mix the Cetol according to directions (and only in the quantity you can apply in its curing time) and brush it on.

If you prefer a more natural look, teak oils are the way to go. We are particularly fond of pigmented oils because they disguise the sun damage and bring "bleached bones" back to a rich luster, while retaining the nonslip surface that raw wood provides. Our team recently tested TeaQua (teaqua.com) on our project boat with great results. Not only does it contain natural colored pigments, but its penetrating formula, according to the manufacturer, has a sealer too.

To get started, we made sure the platform was free from dirt and grime. We thought a light sanding, though not required in the directions, took off loose splinters and opened up the pores for better oil penetration. TeaQua suggests brushing or rolling on the finish, but we wiped it on with a rag for the results you see here. The luster was deep, but best of all, the wood looked natural and retained its nonslip surface. TeaQua users report the treatment can last up to two years, but annual treatment is recommended.

One Of Our Favorite TeaQua Letters:

Good Morning:

 I want to thank the chemist who developed TeaQua. I've always been a fan of oils that are IN not ON the wood and the ease of application, water clean up and the look are outstanding.

I heard about TeaQua from a fellow sailor on one of the forums I visit. I tried it out on teak patio furniture and a red oak bench I built. From that  experience I deemed it worthy of being applied to the teak on my Cape Dory 25D, Seraph. What an understatement. I spent 4 weekends removing the Cetol and 1/2 day applying TeaQua. I didn't use one piece of masking tape. I simply cut it in like a trim painter and came behind with a wet rag to wipe up any TeaQua that got on the gelcoat. Couldn't have been easier unless done by someone else. 
TeaQua has caused quite a stir at my marina. Everyone is watching and taking bets on how long it will last. Having watched my patio furniture for 6 months I'm very optimistic.

There may be a few varnish types at my marina throwing in the brush and
converting to TeaQua.


Thanks again for a fine product
