You going to tell Mr Sails how to finish teak? Right....he's been
finishing teak since he was a kid...not about to interfere with the process
now...he's happy with his process so that's the way it goes...besides, it
gives him something to do....

We varnsih...seven-right coats worth...and every 4-5 years the whole
shebang gets sanded all the way down and we start over again...we use
Z-Spar 2015 (flagship)...

If you and Mr. Sails would just refresh the varnish annually and repair
any defects, you'd save a lot of time and effort while keeping it looking
bristol.

If you'd rather do it your way, why "sand" it down? Use a heat gun and
scraper and save about half the time and effort. Scraping is also easier
on the wood, if done properly, and it works well with varnish removal.
