Product Description

Teak wood has a natural resistance to mold and rot; however, unsightly mildew can still form on the surface of the wood if not cared for. Regular cleanings will help prevent discoloration on both treated and untreated wood 4 Pieces of Regina Reclining Armchair : 65cm x 57cm x 105cm Simply Folding Table : 140cm x 70cm x 75cm Regular cleaning of your teak will help prevent mildew build-up and potential discoloration. A quick wash with mild soap and water and some bleach or vinegar mixed in usually does the trick. Make sure to use a soft plastic brush as metal brushes can scratch and damage the wood's surface. Some harder to clean stains can be removed with a store-bought teak cleaner. When cleaning your teak, always start with the most mild cleaning solution. If that doesn't work, try something more concentrated. 2 Easy Homemade Cleaning Solutions: Mix 1 cup each of chlorine bleach and laundry detergent with 1 gallon of warm water Mix 1 cup of vinegar with 1 gallon of warm water To begin, clear a space to clean your furniture.

When applying teak oil use a paint brush to paint the oil into the wood in even strokes. A cloth dampened with mineral spirits should be used to wipe up any excess oil as you go. Oil that drips onto other surfaces such as painted wood or fiberglass should be wiped away immediately to avoid staining. The amount of oil required for each teak piece will differ. You should continue to paint on the oil until the wood no longer soaks it in, leaving oil pooled on the surface of the wood. At this point the wood should have a matte finish without any shiny spots. Oil should be reapplied every 2 to 3 months. With each application the teak furniture should be washed and cleaned and fully dry before you begin.
