Teak has long been used for decking in marine vessels, being the timber of choice for its high levels of natural oils, making it more resistant to rot and decay. This oil also protects the wood fibres from harsh marine conditions. Through natural weathering the UV light from the sun will fade and make your teak decking turn greyish in colour, losing its bright golden colour when originally installed. To clean and restore the natural brightness back into your teak decking AutoSmart has created the two-step cleaning system which contains Step 1 Marine Teak Cleaner and Step 2 Marine Teak Brightener. Marine Teak Brightener renews your valuable teak, by brightening and enhancing the natural colours and wood grain in your teak finishes preparing the surface for resealing. AutoSmart uses and recommends Semco brand Teak Sealants.
Size Available : 5L / 20L
Ensure easy access to a water supply, and have a hose ready when cleaning. 1. Hose down the entire area with water, wetting the teak ready for AutoSmart Marine Teak Brightener. Don’t allow the cleaner to dry during the brightening process. 2. Apply evenly using a spray jet, or soft brush. Broom the surface using a soft fibre broom, gently scrubbing the product across and with the grain of the teak. The teak will immediately lighten in colour, brightening the teak surface. 3. Apply to one area at a time then immediately rinse down the entire area with water to remove the brightener. Repeat if necessary. Allow teak to completely dry for at least 24 hours before sealing. CAUTION: Protect surfaces being cleaned that could be damaged, such as polished metal, especially aluminium.
