/ The first step involves using SUN TECK, an alkaline cleaner specifically designed for teak. Its purpose is to remove accumulated surface dirt, including oil and grease stains and deposits that clog the wood. The product is diluted with water before being applied to a deck that has been pre-wet using a soft brush. After letting it sit for 10 to 15 minutes, the surface is rinsed thoroughly. During this step, it is recommended not to scrub the wood to avoid damaging its grain.
Once cleaning is complete, the second phase can begin without waiting for the teak to dry. BRIGHT TECK is applied immediately to the still-damp wood. This acid-based wood revitalizer targets dark spots and signs of aging that alter teak?s natural color. In particular, it removes the grayish tints caused by weather, the marine environment, and pollution.
As with the cleaner, the product is diluted and then applied evenly to the surface. After allowing it to sit for 10 to 15 minutes, rinse thoroughly to remove any residue. This second step restores the wood to a color closer to its original shade.
The process is therefore based on a simple principle: the first step thoroughly cleans the teak, while the second step restores its color. When used in sequence, the two products allow you to renovate a teak deck without resorting to sanding or aggressive brushing, which can accelerate the wood?s wear and tear.
Once the treatment is complete and the teak is dry, you can apply an additional protective coating?such as oil or a wood sealer?to minimize the effects of moisture, salt, and weathering. This helps the wood retain its appearance and natural protection for longer.
