Like many I have tried everything . I have a 77' Fortier . Sanding it down and just putting on this . No fuss looks excellent and preservers the look.

As a sailboat owner for many years I have used Cetol on my teak with great results. This time my son and I used it on a beautiful set of outdoor patio furniture. My son's project looks wonderful. Jamestown Distributors is a great source for boat supplies and equipment .

I have a sailboat with a lot of teak. The perennial teak question is, do you protect it, and if so, how? Varnish is a bad idea because it defeats the low maintenance advantage of teak. Cetol Light solves the problem by providing some protection for the wood without the steady upkeep required of varnish. I applied 3 coats 3 years ago, and it still looks good. It's beginning to wear off in some places (it does not chip, crack, or peel) so I may recoat this year. It makes old teak look great.

This is a good product that works best if you use the suggested preperation method.

Best product around for protection of nice woodwork that is exposed to the elements. Easy maintenance of covered surfaces.

I use this product on the exterior brightwork of a wooden schooner. The boat is moored in Puget Sound. Degredation from harsh sunlight is not an issue here, but wet weather sure is. Cetol has worked well for us for years.

This 34' Beneteau sailboat had sat for years without attention, so serious sanding was required the first time. Afterwards three coats were applied with light sanding between coats, with amazing results. About every 4 to 6 months (in a Florida environment), I sand lightly with a scotch brite pad and add 1 or 2 coats of Cetol and I am done for another 6 months. I'll be a lazy Captain if I can! I suggest buying one shade lighter then you want to achieve in the end.

I used Cetol Marine light on the hand railing and cap rail of my trawler. The product works very well, but the wood finish should already be the same shade before you start painting. If there are different shades, as in weathered wood, I'd suggest using Cetol Marine, at least three coats. There's more pigment in the Marine as opposed to the Marine Light. After three (or more) coats, I put an additional three coats of Cetol Gloss, and the wood looks great. Good products.
