    Answer This Question

    We're happy to clear things up, Eddie. While Rust-Oleum Watco Teak Oil Finish provides a strong finish that enhances the look of the wood, it is a penetrating product. As it is exposed to wear it will fade over time and may require maintenance applications. -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14

          Answer This Question

          We're happy to help, Albert. Rust-Oleum Watco Teak Oil can be applied by heavily flooding it onto the surface using a brush, lint-free cloth, or roller. We recommend applying additional product to the areas that absorb all the oil. After the oil has sat on the surface for a few minutes the excess oil must be wiped away using a clean rag or cloth. -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14

              What oil should I use on cedar wood
              ByMar 25, 2025
              1 Answer | 
              Answer This Question

              Great question, Lacy. While Rust-Oleum Watco Teak Oil Finish provides excellent durability for dense woods, it would not be the best for a porous wood like cedar. Instead, we recommend applying Rust-Oleum Watco Danish Oil as it will deeply penetrate and protect the pores of a porous wood. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Watco-1-Gallon-Danish-Oil-in-Natural-2-Pack-65732/202067184?MERCH=REC-_-brand_based_collection-_-100154957-_-4-_-n/a-_-n/a-_-n/a-_-n/a-_-n/a -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14

                Happy to help, Clarissa. Rust-Oleum Watco Teak Oil will no longer off gas harmful fumes once it has fully cured, meaning it can be applied to a babies crib. All precautions should still be take to prevent any accidental ingestion. -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14

                  We appreciate you reaching out and sharing your experience, Sally! With any wood stain or oil project, we do recommend working in a space with proper ventilation and air circulation, such as outdoors or in an open garage. If needed, the surface treated with Rust-Oleum Watco Teak Oil can be wiped down with a mild soap and water once dry to help remove any lingering solvents.

                    Refinished two 15 year old Teak rockers and using the Watco product. Worked like a charm. Downside were the fumes created, it took several days to cure.

                    Great Product
                    We recently did our annual cleaning of our 15 year old Teak Rockers. We always pressure wash, dry and sand the wood followed with a generous coat of Linseed oil. This year my wife wanted to investigate an alternative to the Linseed oil. After scanning our options at our “Depot” we decided on Watco Teak Oil. Great choice Watco went on easy with a disposable paint brush creating a beautiful golden finish. The things to expect: strong fumes taking several days to dissipate , slight color change from light white to slight golden finish and coverage area is considerably less than indicated. After a recent rain the finish looked great with water beading up on the wood. I would recommend Watco teak oil for small projects that can be done outside to avoid the fumes.

                      I recently built a table top out of 100+ year old cypress. I used the Teak oil to rehydrate the wood.

                      I use this for all outdoor wood. We have an old growth picnic table, a swing/glider and a Chinese dog of solid wood. The dog sits by the front door. At first it took 10 coats, especially at the end grain. Several years later, now, it took one coat and has a glossy shine. The last gallon was mostly used up on a boat.

                      Fool proof
                      An easy product to use with great results. Provides an excellent finish that looks and feels natural without a painty or other coat feel. It lets the wood do all the hard work of looking beautiful and just provides some nice protection. Easy to use every couple years. Light sanding then reapply. Super easy and effective.

                      Worked as advertised, but...
                      1st time using teak oil. Wow, results were excellent. Lightly sanded per instructions and brushed on 1st coat. After 1 hour, dry brushed to even wet spots. Let dry for 8 hours, but still tacky. Repeated steps and let dry overnight. Still a bit tacky, but almost dry. Dry brushed a few times and let dry overnight again. Perfection!
