exterior wood treatments/care

Kyle, the consensus among guys I've talked to here in Annapolis over the past 15 years is a preference for Cetol, so I've been using it with satisfactory results most of that time.

Braxton,

The only real good solution is Signature Honey Teak. It is top rated by Practical Sailor. It is two step and you have to take it to down to bare teak but do it right once and thats it. Looks like gloss varnish but haer as rock. It goes on wet on wet after 15 minutes so can be done in one day.
Google "honey teak" and call Tom in Florida.
And no Cetol orange colour which I don't really like.

At one point it appeared that our teak had been covered in brown paint on it. Last winter I removed all finish/s from our teak. I then applied "Cetol Natural Teak" 3 coats in one day.
It is more of a matt finish with no yellow tint. We are extreamly please with the color, will see how it holds up.
