TEAK: A SHORT INTRODUCTION

Teak is a tropical hardwood with a beautiful golden /honey brown color when it is new. Over time, as natural teak is exposed to the elements, it gradually changes color from the honey color of new teak to a silver-gray patina which distinguishes finely aged, outdoor teak. After a while this silver-gray patina deteriorates to a dark-gray and greenish look if it remains untreated.

Depending on the environment, natural graying and/or weathering may become noticeable after only a few weeks. In drier climates teak will take several months to weather. If teak is exposed to infrequent moisture, the color will fade slowly with minor discoloration. In moist climates, where furniture is subjected to regular dew and sunshine, teak furniture will weather more quickly.

Teak Care Q & A's

I have just bought a new piece of teak furniture, which care products would you recommend?

This depends on the color that you prefer in your teak furniture. If you prefer the silver-gray, we recommend the Teak Patinizer. If you prefer the golden /honey brown of new teak, use Teak Protector.

If my teak furniture has already turned dark-grey, which care products would you recommend?

If you would like to restore the color to the natural silver use Teak Cleaner to clean and brighten the wood. Afterwards apply the Teak Patinizer to preserve the silver- gray color. If you prefer the color of new teak, use Teak Cleaner first to restore the color and apply the Teak Protector to preserve the color.

Once treated, can teak be left outside in the rain?

Yes. Soon after application our products will be dry and will protect the furniture from sun, rain and snow.

Does it matter at what time of year I have my teak wood treated?

No. However, we recommend treatment prior to winter storage and at the beginning of the season when it is put to regular use.
