Teak furniture Care Instructions

All Classic Teak quality teakwood products are manufactured from Java teakwood specially selected from reserved production forests, carefully managed by the government forestry agency.

Teak furniture, when left bare and un-sanded, will fade to a natural silver-gray color. This color transformation does not affect the durability of the teak furniture or the wood itself. To maintain the smooth finish and golden brown color, you will need to sand your teak furniture regularly. To prolong the period of time needed between sanding, teak oil may also be applied. If you choose to apply teak oil, apply every 3 months, or follow the teak oil container instructions. If you choose to maintain the smooth brown finish of your new teak furniture, this method requires some maintenance for upkeep, such as sanding and reapplication of teak oil. Teak oil does not prolong the life of teak; it simply maintains the golden brown color.

Staining:
Please note, once you stain your teak, you cannot return to the natural golden brown or silver-gray color without numerous sanding. Stain is intended to be permanent. If you choose to stain your furniture after it has turned silver-gray, you must first sand it before applying stain.

Do not leave teak furniture in puddles of water or on wet ground.
Cover your teak furniture during winter months or move into covered area.
