TEAK OIL & DECKING OIL FOR OUTDOOR WOOD
Sun and rain change wood. Even weather-resistant woods such as teak fade and turn gray over time. Regular oiling with OLI NATURA® Yacht & Teak Oil counteracts the silver-gray patina and helps protect the wood surface from drying out and becoming brittle.
The oil penetrates deep into the wood and protects it from within. The surface remains open-pored and water-repellent, while the color and grain are visibly refreshed—without forming a closed film.
Which woods and applications is OLI NATURA® Yacht & Teak Oil suitable for?
For wooden decks, decking boards, garden furniture, pool surrounds, and yacht decks made of suitable outdoor woods such as teak, bangkirai, Douglas fir, larch, eucalyptus, black locust, oak, Ipé, or Cumaru.
The right choice if you want to preserve and visibly enhance the warm character of the wood and are looking for a biocide-free wood oil for outdoor use.
A particular advantage is the simple maintenance: The oil penetrates the wood and remains open-pored. The oil coating does not crack, peel, or flake. Previously oiled surfaces can therefore usually be recoated easily without sanding.
What does wood look like after applying OLI NATURA® Yacht & Teak Oil?
Oiling gives the wood greater depth and warmth. The color and grain appear more vibrant, while the surface remains open-pored and natural to the touch.
Natural is free of pigments, but not visually colorless: Like any oil that enhances the wood’s natural color, it deepens the existing wood tone. Teak is lightly pigmented, subtly enhances warm wood tones, and provides increased UV protection. The Teak shade is also suitable for other types of wood without covering them and recoloring them completely in a teak tone.
The type of wood, its natural color, and the sanding finish influence the shade. The most reliable way to see the result is to create a test area on the original wood. All shades are available as samplers.
How easy is OLI NATURA® Yacht & Teak Oil to apply?
Apply thinly, allow to penetrate, and remove excess. Apply the oil evenly in the direction of the grain and polish it off completely after approximately 15 minutes.
Apply only to clean, dry wood. Then protect the freshly oiled surface from rain and moisture for 5–8 days.
Very dry or highly absorbent wood can be oiled a second time after drying overnight. Treat dense woods such as teak only thinly. For refreshing the surface, one application is usually sufficient.
Previously oiled surfaces can generally be maintained without sanding. Depending on weather exposure and use, refreshing the surface once a year is usually sufficient; for fully exposed wood, it may be necessary twice a year.
