Answer This Question
A:Â Thank you for reaching out! After applying Rust-Oleum Watco Teak Oil, all excess should be removed with a clean lint free cloth. This will allow the oil to fully dry without getting tacky.

Q:I have a project that was treated with wood conditioner and then stained. Can I use this product for the final finish
by|Jul 27, 2023
1 Answer
Answer This Question
A:Â Here to help, Cathy! Rust-Oleum Watco Teak Oil is intended for use on bare wood surfaces, and is a penetrating product. The stain on the wood can prevent the oil from properly penetrating. We recommend using a Varathane Ultimate Spar Urethane instead if you are looking for UV protection on the stained wood.

Answer This Question
A:Â Thank you for reaching out, Dave! Rust-Oleum Watco Teak Oil is intended for use with dense woods such as teak, rosewood or mahogany, but it can be used on other wood types. Please keep in, since softer woods are more porous, it will require more coats of Teak Oil to build the proper finish. You also want to ensure that the surface is free of any other finishes or wax to ensure proper penetration.

Q:Can this be applied to China Fir (Cunninghamia) wood?

1 Answer
Answer This Question
A:Â Happy to help. While Watco Teak Oil is designed for application to dense woods such as teak, rosewood or mahogany, it can be used on any wood. Since softer woods are more porous, it will require more coats of Teak Oil to build the proper finish. Flood on heavy application of Watco Teak Oil with brush, lint-free cloth, roller or spray, applying additional finish to area that absorb all the liquid. Allow finish to dry a minimum of 30 minutes before re-coating. Lower temperatures and/or higher humidity may cause slower dry times. Apply additional coats every 15 minutes. Wipe surface thoroughly with a clean lint free cloth to remove excess oil from the surface. Allow finish to dry 8-
10 hours before light use.

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!

Watco is the only brand of Teak Oil that I found, that stipulates that the final finish is "matt" on the front of the can and in the web descriptions. Minwax doesn't mention the final appearance at all until you read the fine print on the back of the can, where it finally tells you it is High Gloss, which is appropriate in a marine application but not for patio furniture. Matt is appropriate for furniture.
Out of the can, there is a very very slight translucent brownish tint, but it goes on completely clear. Directions say you can use a hand held pump up garden sprayer. Because of the huge number of slats on 8 chairs and a 10' table, I found that the sprayer wasted way too much oil. You will have to brush it around anyway, so why use the sprayer? I enjoyed great success by using a combination of a paint brush, a stack of microfiber cloths (for both application and lint-free drying), and a pair of rubber gloves.
Just as wood gets darker when you wet it, the wood does become a little darker initially, as seen in the before/after photo. The beauty of the teak grain becomes more pronounced, and the wood takes on a much warmer and richer appearance. It does not change colors as it would with a stain.
Just follow the application direction on the can and you will end up with a beautiful highly durable finish.

Teak Patio Furniture Revitalization
After several years of allowing our 12-pieces of teak furniture to weather naturally, my wife felt I needed a project during the COVID-19 shutdown. So, I embarked on refinishing all of our teak furniture and chose the Watco Teak Oil to use for the job. I used a Black & Decker orbital sander to sand every piece of furniture, which included folding chairs, recliners, small & large tables. Brushing on the Watco Teak Oil became a time-consuming effort and there were many areas difficult to reach, even with a brush. So, I decided to use a hand-spray bottle to apply the initial coat, brush it on, let it absorb overnight, then apply a second coat. This worked really great and the teak oil did a fabulous job of enhancing the teak grain. The only issue was, even with a manual sprayer, the spray went everywhere. I did this in my garage, moved the cars out, laid down drop-cloths, the whole bit. The over-spray still went everywhere. So, if you have a lot of furniture to do and want to cut the application time down, spraying does work, but use a mask and cover EVERYTHING! Overall, I was extremely happy with the results using Watco Teak Oil!
