Old English Lemon wood oil because it is sold in grocery stores and it
doesn’t darken the teak.Regards,

Thanks, John. I’m definitely looking for an oil that
doesn’t darken the teak.How often do you oil your interior teak?

Roger that, John. I’m cleaning Silverheels’ interior
teak for the first time ever. (There has always seemed
like more important things to do, including going
sailing.) I am astonished at the change effected by a
little detergent, bleach, water and elbow grease.The pieces that can be carried onto the dock are easy.
However, it seems to me pieces & bulkheads belowdecks
are going to be a wet, messy business if they’re to be
rinsed thoroughly. I can’t imagine intentionally making
such a mess every 6 months. Is there a neat way to
clean interior teak that I should know about?Thanks,
Tor

I rejoice to hear it! I’ll surely make a mess this
time, though, getting the teak “basically clean” for
the first time in (probably) 35 years. It’s part of
this summer’s “sprucing up,” and in fact just another
step in the Never-Ending Refit of the Good Ketch

Tor,
I guess I have to admit I plan to clean the interior teak twice a year, but
it actually gets done maybe once a year.
Like the others I don’t rinse after washing the teak. Just let it dry and
apply the oil. I normally use a soap that does not produce a lot of suds
like Pine Soil, Murphy’s or … just had another brain fart and can’t
remember the name of the stuff that advertises it doesn’t need a rinse.
These brain farts are becoming much too common.Regards,
John Stevenson
