That looks awesome, How do you apply your oil? My interior woodwork soaks it up like a sponge. looks good for a day or two, then starts to fade, and dull.this is a pic of my salon table with 6 coats of watco teak oil View attachment 115531
i just painted it on and let it dry for a full day then rubbed it with a scotch bright pad and wiped the dust and added another coat....did it six times oh and i used a wool sock to apply the teak oilThat looks awesome, How do you apply your oil?

What color Scotchbright? They come in different levels of abrasiveness.i just painted it on and let it dry for a full day then rubbed it with a scotch bright pad and wiped the dust and added another coat....did it six times oh and i used a wool sock to apply the teak oil
Have you tried this on bulkheads and cabinetry yet?i just painted it on and let it dry for a full day then rubbed it with a scotch bright pad and wiped the dust and added another coat....did it six times oh and i used a wool sock to apply the teak oil
yes its works fine but you have to do multiple coatsHave you tried this on bulkheads and cabinetry yet?
that's all well and good ....after 72 hrs the toxic problem is gone ....i have seen people use buttermilk in finishing things ...but i would not use it ...finishing can and is a tricky business in of itselfIt has been my understanding that teak oils for exterior / weather bright work should not be applied on joinery in cabin / living spaces (because of its toxic nature). My process has been to wash the cabin space joinery (1978 S2 8.0C with all original natural oiled teak) with Murphy's Oil soap and after a day or two apply a some Johnson's bay oil (mineral oil; a non toxic substance with no chemicals or strong odor) for a natural -no gloss finish (that can be touched up with no tell-tail color difference.
