Golden CareTeak Instant Grey

I wasn't sure if the marketing talk for this product would match up to reality but I took a risk, and was very pleased to see the reviews were true! This teak furniture has been out in the elements for ten years with zero maintenance from me. Then we had them power-washed - they came up so nicely but looked too 'new' - we wanted a driftwood look to go with the grey deck, and that's exactly what this stuff did.Only word of warning is that it takes a LOT more of this stuff than you expect. The company give no guidance on coverage area, so I read the other reviews and bought 4x 1L bottles for 2 benches, 2 seats, 1 large table and 1 coffee table. Wasn't even close - needed another 3x 1L bottles to finish the job (one coat!).The freshly cleaned wood sucks it up like a sponge. I'm sure a second coat wouldn't need as much but do yourself a fav and buy extra. It's annoying they don't sell this stain in 1G or larger (like they do their other products) but end of the day, not a big deal.

My teak table was very worn and had that silver patina look which I liked, but the table felt rough and needed to be cleaned. I power washed it and man did it look great, but it wasn’t my style. I applied this product and OMG it looked awesome. I then applied the Golden Care shield and it looks and feels like a brand new table. Very happy with this product. If you’re going for that silver patina look, but want the feel and look of a new table, get this plus the shield and it’s good as new!

This did very little to change the look of my brand new teak stool. It was supposed to be raw wood. After following instructions and applying 2 coats only some of the wood turned slightly light grey. The rest is still light tan wood color. It kinda lookss like a very light white wash over the rest. I think I might sand it down and try something else.

I’m very happy with this product! It made my old teak table look brand new! It was very easy to apply, only needed one bottle for 4 chairs and the entire table and the color is perfect if you’re looking for a crisp, clean weathered look!

I used this product on new teak and was very disappointed. It did not stain to a gray but just toned down the orange hue a bit. A watered down gray paint might have been a better choice.

This photo shows before and after just one coat! I will be doing a second coat for more coverage. I needed to transform a teak cafe set from brown to grey to match my other patio furniture. I’m very pleased. Also, because this is water based, cleanup is super easy.

Difficult to apply evenly. Did not seem to soak into wood very well then applied sealer. After it rained furniture was left with dried water spots. Had to lightly sand and reapply sealer. This removed some of gray stain but now finish looks even & no water spots.

Looks milky and not suitable for teak decking on a yacht. Might look better on small furniture but definitely not for large areas.
