Rustins Teak Oil 1L

Easy to apply and looks great.

Very good coverage and consistency, however does dry quite orange/yellow

Unlike other golden coloured teak oils, this is dark and dries to a gloss finish. I've used this on an external table to make it waterproof. 3 coats gives a high gloss finish that water runs off. I won't put it on hardwood seats as i like a matt finish and re-oil regularly, and this will block the take up of further oil. It does darken the wood slightly but look great.

Used a generous amount of this on a bench, but still hasn't had the desired effect we were looking for.

Used it on an old bench that had been left out for years. Was going to replace the bench but tried this teak oil instead. Made the bench look good enough (at least a lot less terrible) to keep in the garden.

This transformed our garden furniture. Just be thorough in removing dirt and any existing finish eg paint. If oiled surface already, this works well.

Pros: Very easy to applyCons: Used on previously untreated teak yet doesn’t fully penetrate but sits on top of teak with a bit of shine. Not the effect I would expect from oil. Also, the smell lingers for weeks now. Clearly detectable when using or even walking past the outdoor garden furniture.

This product works fantastically well. The appearance of our outdoor furniture is really enhanced and is well-protected from the rain.
