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!!

as odd as it sounds, I've seen profesional detail people apply oil based varnish over oiled teak, I would never have thought it would work. Go to wooden boats web site and see if you can do a search for teak refinishing, you may have to pay a fee for the info( bunch of tight wad stick boaters) from their archives, but it might be worth it
