Teak Care Guide

Caring For Teak Outdoor Furniture

Cleaning, Sealing and Protecting Teak Furniture

Teak (Tectona grandis) is an immensely stable timber, dense in nature, ideal for garden furniture. Natural teak timber varies widely in color from soft, even blonde to rich patterns of golden amber and deep brown. When the furniture is outdoors and untreated, the sun and rain will change all colors to an even, warm, silvery gray. Exceptionally strong and durable, remaining smooth to the touch, immune to warp and rot, teak furnishings last for decades through bright sun, rain, snow and a wide range of seasonal temperatures without any care. Teak requires no preservatives - we offer a variety of products for other aesthetic options.

Country Casual Teak Golden Sealer

Who Should Use Country Casual Teak Golden Sealer?

Golden Sealer teak sealer is the ideal product for anyone trying to maintain the golden blonde color of new teak wood. Teak sealer was designed by Country Casual Teak primarily for use with teak outdoor furniture, and prevents furniture left outdoors from weathering to a silver / gray color.

How Much Should I Use?

For new teak, use 1 liter to cover two coats on a mid-size dining table and chair set; choose 3 liters for larger jobs. An initial two-coat application and a single re-coat of the teak sealer on dry furniture at yearly intervals will preserve the new-teak color (some climates may require more frequent applications). With an indefinite shelf life, leftover Golden Sealer can be used for future applications.

What If My Furniture Isn't new?

Country Casual Teak offers a full range of products to make caring for your teak furniture as simple and easy as possible. To refurbish weathered teak, first clean furniture with Teak Cleaner and then apply Golden Sealer. Weathered teak will require more Golden Sealer than new teak.

How do I apply Teak Sealer?

Teak sealer can be applied to new or newly cleaned teak with a rag or application brush. Country Casual Teak also offers a Utility Kit which can be used to apply any of our teak care products. Before applying Golden Sealer to new teak, we recommend that the teak first be cleaned with Country Casual Teak Cleaner. This will help remove some of the natural oils of the wood and prepare the surface to accept the finish. It is important to allow teak to dry completely before sealing.

Country Casual Teak Gray Sealer

Who Should Use Country Casual Teak Gray Sealer?

Gray Sealer is the ideal product for anyone trying to achieve an even, light gray color on natural teak. Gray Sealer was designed by Country Casual Teak to give new or newly cleaned teak a light gray patina without waiting for it to weather naturally. Gray Sealer can be used on teak at any stage of weathering to add a gray, weathered look instantly.

What's the difference between Gray Sealer and Silver Teak Shield?

Our Gray Sealer formula turns new or newly cleaned teak from golden blond to a light gray color, while allowing the wood to naturally weather underneath. Silver Teak Shield inhibits the growth of mold and mildew on already weathered teak furniture. Gray Sealer does not prevent the growth of mold or mildew on treated furniture placed in moist and shady environments.

How Much Should I Use?

For new teak, use 1 liter to cover two coats on a mid-size dining table and chair set; choose 3 liters for larger jobs. Any Gray Sealer that is not immediately used can be stored indefinitely.

How Do I Apply Gray Sealer?

Gray Sealer can be applied to new or newly cleaned teak with a soft cloth (provided) or application brush. Before applying Gray Sealer to new teak, we recommend that the teak first be cleaned with our Teak Cleaner. This will help remove some of the natural oils of the wood and prepare the surface to accept the treatment. It is important to allow teak to dry completely before treating. Country Casual Teak also offers a Utility Kit which can be used to apply any of our teak care products.

Who Should Use Teak Cleaner?

Teak Cleaner is an ideal product for lightly cleaning dirty teak furniture. Teak cleaner is designed to remove dirt, oil, and mildew, as well as stains caused by water, food or drink, and weathering. To restore furniture that is severely dirty or weathered, or to remove prior finishes, choose Two-Part Teak Cleaner.

What Is The Difference Between Country Casual Teak Cleaner and Country Casual Teak Two-Part Cleaner?

Teak Cleaner is a water-based product intended to clean teak furniture in one easy step. It will remove dirt, oil, mildew, and light staining. Teak cleaner should be used on dirty or weathering teak furniture before applying other teak sealers or glosses.

Country Casual Teak Two-Part Cleaner is a solvent-based deep cleaner designed to thoroughly remove or strip dirt, oil, stains and graying from severely weathered teak. This two-part process will clean the wood, and is recommended for furniture that hasn’t been regularly maintained for several years.

To clean teak furniture while maintaining the silver gray look, occasionally wash with a solution of mild liquid dish soap and water. We do not recommend power-washing teak wood as it may damage the wood.

How much Teak Cleaner should I use?

Amount needed will vary depending on degree of dirt and stains. Generally a 1 liter bottle of teak cleaner is enough to clean a mid-sized dining table and chair set.

How do I apply Teak Cleaner?

Apply teak cleaner with a sponge or spray bottle. Scrub with a soft nylon brush or coarse sponge (supplied). Country Casual Teak also offers a Utility Kit which can be used to apply any of our teak care products.

Country Casual Teak Two-Part Teak Cleaner

Who Should Use Two-Part Teak Deep Cleaner?

How much Two-Part Cleaner should I use?

Use 1 quart of Two-Part Cleaner to clean a med-sized dining table and chair set or 2 benches.

How do I apply Two-Part Cleaner?

Apply part 1 and scrub with a coarse sponge or soft nylon brush. More vigorous scrubbing removes more of the surface dirt. Apply part 2 and scrub again. Repeat if necessary.

Protect Teak Furniture Teak Water and Stain Guard

Water and stain guard will form a temporary moisture barrier to prevent water damage and stains from drink condensation, spills, and glass rings.

If Golden Sealer has already been applied, use Clear Coat Gloss to protect against water and food stains.
