Just applied over the teak colored version. This product is awesome and infinitely easier to use than the varnish I have used for years. One must thin a good bit more than the directions or else it tends to stay gummy, but thin enough it is superb. Since eyebrows and handrails are a pain to varnish, will be using this in the future.

This finish applies easy and has very good coverage. My only complaint is that dry time is much longer than some of the Total Boat varnishes I have used but once it cures it leaves a beautiful finish.

We varnished our grilling table made from acacia wood. It was a little bleached out in spots but this product gave it back some color and shine. The water beads right off of it now.

I have always just oiled the teak on my boat as, I don't have the time that properly varnishing requires. I found this product from a Andy's youtube post on Totalboattoday. The application was quick and easy. Very happy with the end result and looking forward to see how it stand up throughout the summer.

I am using this product on a large wooden hand carved house address sign which has to withstand the rigors of severe winters and intense sunlight at 9,400 feet elevation. Time will tell, but I get the distinct impression that it is up to the task.

We have refinished a table used for outdoor dining using every finish we knew of, including all kinds of UV protected marine types. Nothing ever worked in terms of the ability to stand up to constant sun and the elements. This product is as bright and strong as the day it was applied. No peeling. No color change. Terrific! Thanks Total Boat!

Easy instructions. As long as you do the necessary prep work (sanding to 320, cleaning thoroughly with tack and mineral spirits), this finish goes on easy, smooths out nicely, and looks fantastic! I thinned the first coat to allow for better absorption. I'll never go back to regular teak oil again!

I used this product for the first time on a 45 year old teak swim platform. The prep work was considerable and tedious getting years of old finishes off and then bleaching the wood. But when I started applying Total Boat the project became fun because the application is so simple and the results are just outstanding! Five coats of Total Boat (no sanding required between coats)and the finished product looks like the best varnish job I ever did. My only suggestion outside of the instructions on the can is to thin with mineral spirts to obtain good brushing characteristics (just like you would do with varnish). This is a great product, I can't wait to start the next project refinishing the handrails.
