I am in the process of adding a 7 inch portion to the teak swimplatform on my Centurion. As a result I will have to refinish the whole thing to get a nice consistant look (needs it anyhow). I was just wondering what the best product is for finishing the teak for both protction and factory look.

Thanks
:D

Star Brite do a good one but to be honest, in my opnion, teak oil is teak oil. Just buy one and re-oil every 3-6 months. Teaks a PAIN to take care of but looks good for it.

Whatever you do, do not sand it use a brush if you need to clean it first.

Use Sickens teak finish. It is by far the best product out there.
