I've spent way too much time sanding varnish from teak hand rails on
the cabin top. I've gotten most of it off, but there are so many
nooks and crannies I'm considering use of a chemical varnish remover
to finsih the job. My main fear is staining the white gelcoat or
affecting the non-skid surrounding the rail. If you've tried this,
please share your results, both positive and otherwise.

I'll be applying Honey Teak if I ever get all this varnish removed.

I'd go for lighter solutions before the strippers. Perhaps TSP or the
two-part teak cleaners. We can unscrew almost all our exterior woodwork,
take it home over the winter, and do a REALLY good job.

As others mentioned, taping off makes the job a lot cleaner.
