Last spring I completely redid all my teak on my '88 Montauk - with oil, not varnish. You're either a varnish guy or you're an oil guy. If you prefer the look of oil...

After having a furniture stripper remove all the previous owner's poly I cleaned the wood with Amazon Step 1 teak cleaner, in fact several cleanings. Then I put five coats of Amazon Golden teak oil on the wood with foam brushes.

Fortunately, the boat sits on the mooring with a mooring cover. By the end of the season the wood looked nearly as good as it did on Memorial Day weekend. See my personal page.
