On the outside wood, I'm using Natural Teak Cetol.
Looks good until it starts to fade, then it looks like orange barn
paint.
I must be using a different version although it says "Cytol" on the
can. Mine just looks grungier and grungier until I scrub it down and
put on a couple of more coats. But it never looks "orange", it looks
more like decorating varnish.
Are the different flavors?
Yeah. Four in the marine flavors.

Us poor benighted 3rd world people don't get all those choices. From
memory the cans I have are "Light" and all I have seen here.
On the other hand, there are some advantages. Before I listed the 40
ft. sloop I just sold I had the entire interior refurbished. One piece
of the 1/8" panel that lines the S.B. the side of the cabin top
replaced and everything sanded and revarnished. I don't know how many
coats but a "smooth" finish. Cost me $545 :-)
