I like using "Zar" stain, and "Poly" (both are Marine grade), my boat get's "Hammered" all season from the Sun, and everything else, I can get a few years out of the finish, on my 4th now, going on 5th, then it's time to do it all over again. I like the look and protection of "stain" and"Poly", Teak oil work's very well, it's just that I don't like being a slave to the wood all season long by the constant oiling needed. I choose to be a slave to the wood for 2-week's straight when I have to re-finish. Choose your poison, lol !

I have "Mahogany" wood.
