Thanks Dave! That is a great write up. The rubbed Teak I did required wet sanding with 400 grit and 600 grit. If you put on maintenance coats do they need to be wet sanded as well?
Thanks Robbin

rubbed teak oil is what i use on my boats. also used on the Sage boats. works great and much easier to maintain in my opinion (i know others will disagree). i discuss teak oil finishing here -

Hi all, not as exciting as major rebuild stuff but I just did my first rubbed oil finish on a teak drawer. Has anyone got experience with this? I was
going
from a couple of books and wonder if I pulled off the desired finish.
Thanks Robbin
