Hey Lumber
My teak runners for my sliding hatch need refinishing. How did you go about doing yours? Mine hasn't been done in about 10 years.
thanks garage

My name isn't Lumber but i can help you out a little bit. But, I dont own my V-20 anymore though.
 All the teak on my 250 Sportsman was very grey and soft. I honestly dont think its been oiled since it left Wellcraft. I found that for anything over a half inch thick the best cure was to sand it down with 80 grit paper then wire brush bleach into the deep ground in crap and let it sit. I would then wire brush it then wash it off again and sand it again. I had pictures of everything on the boat when i got it but my boss lost them in his computer. But everything ended up looking a helluva lot better than it did before. I ended up making a new splashwell board, the old one is WHITE. Also for all the cockpit trim i'm gonna have to resaw a peice of teak down to make new trim. The old stuff was only 1/4 inch thick and when i finally sanded all the grey off it was a little over an 1/8" thick. Its amazing how new or refinished teak makes the boat look totally different. Also on some teak i'm planning to use Spar Varnish to do the final coat.

I've been using the Interlux Teak Oil. I think the only difference is price. Lumber i bought 52 linear feet of new Brazilain teak, and made a new splashwell board out of it, i put two coats of oil on it do you think it needs more? I plan to spar varnish it tomorrow.

Lumber, I'm not sure I understand? Then again, I'm just a dummy. How about I take mine off and ship it to ya, then you can just polish mine up without having to go through all the aggravation of explaining it yet again

JasonC, I do not think you want to use varnish over teak oil. I do not think it will stick. I always thought you went with teak oil, which would need more cleaning and re-oiling, or varnish, which might last a little longer but would also require periodic maintenance.

Thanks everyone, but I guess what ya'll are saying is sand the chit out of it and then oil the h%ll out of it and then put multiple coats of sealer on it. While I'm waiting on these coats to dry maybe I can have multiple orga$ms with the Main Muff!!
