View the latest post Refinishing teak
- Posted by: MakinTime » March 18th, 2018, 4:46 pm
- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
Hey guys, I am refinishing a lot of teak on my boat mostly upper helm stuff for now, it had something on there that made it very orange and needed to be redone. I’m thinking it was sikkens that was applied years ago. I have sanded it all down and ready to apply oil or sealer to it. Any recommendations on brand? I’m looking for natural finish.

View the latest post Attachment(s) Bottom Paint Sanding Option
- Posted by: amanphoto » March 15th, 2018, 1:50 pm
- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
I've looked around and have not seen anyone mention this. I have a Porter Cable Drywall sander. It has an 8" sanding disk, dust containing curtain and connects to a vacuum. It has a long handle to do long sweeps across the bottom so I don't have to move as much. Has any one tried or used this?
