I just 'double coat' with the maintenance clear coat every two years
and powerbuff it with a highspeed autobody shop polisher in the intervening years. In article om, Keith wrote: I use Honey Teak, and have for about 5 years. You put on 3 base coats of the Honey, which is a pigmented polyurethane. You mix the Honey with a flow fluid and a catalyst. Then you put on 2+ coats of the clear enamel, again mix the enamel with flow fluid and catalyst. This makes a beautiful finish that is tough! Be sure to follow their directions because it's a bit different to apply than regular varnish. Try to do it when it's cool and/or cloudy. Hot and direct sun will make it bubble on raw teak on the first coat. For maintenance you only have to scuff the surface with a 3M red pad and put on another coat or two of clear annually. http://www.fabulainc.com/ I just finished putting on the annual maintenance coat... it rained yesterday and the water beads up on the finish just like a car that's just been waxed. |
