I stripped ALL the varnish off my exterior teak last year because it was lifting and peeling/looked like crap.
I never want to do that again.
We applied Semco on everything to keep it nice, and we'll have to put on a new coat every year. Now, reading a couple of the threads out there on Cetol, it seems that it would be the same amount of work to do a Cetol coat as it would be to do a Semco coat - with much prettier results.
I don't mind putting a coat of something on the teak each year, but I don't want to have to strip ever again.
My question is, is Cetol a product that will lift at the seams like varnish? How long will it last if I maintain it with the annual coat?
