WHY DOES MY CETOL TURN ORANGE!???!!!

It has orange pigments, naturally. The mfr. chose that color to most
closely approximate the color of clean unstained teak. Cetol Marine Light
has less such pigment, and some other preparations have no apparent
pigments, such as West Marine's Woodpro and Epifanes' Gloss and Matte Wood
Finish. The Epifanes products require no sanding between coats and are
compatible with varnish, so you can sand old varnish in good condition and
put 'em right over.
