TeakProtek is a unique water based formulation aimed at addressing a needed solution for marine teak decks. This crystal clear, odor and fume free coating has outstanding adhesion and abrasion resistance. Teak decks coated with TeakProtek will retain their protection for a year or longer. In addition to water, soil and stain protection, the teak wood is protected against harmful UV rays, preventing oxidizing and break down of the wood fiber.

Popular teak coatings are topical with short term protection. Some contain modest UV protection and thus call for repeat applications. Others are dilutions of linseed or tung oil in mineral spirits and with repeat applications they can build up a sticky layer that can trap moisture and damage the wood. TeakProtek has been formulated with highly specialized, multiple UV inhibitors as this is the single most detrimental inuence that has to be controlled. Additionally TeakProtek provides a durable barrier against water, beverages and other soils and staining. It also contains certain nano materials that increase the coecient of friction and provide anti-slip properties even under wet conditions.

TeakProtek can be used on solid woods, veneers and all natural woods such as maple, oak, pine, walnut, rosewood, etc. The application of TeakProtek will brighten the natural color of the wood without obscuring the wood grain and natural appearance.

TeakProtek is available in a satin or matte finish surface and the fully cured coating exhibits a strong water beading eect. When necessary a re-finish coat can be applied after a light sanding. There is no need to fully remove the previous TeakProtek coat or other extensive prep work. Simply make sure that the surface to be treated is clean and free of dirt and soil.

TeakProtek Application

TeakProtek may be applied by brush or roller on wood that is fully dry. General surface preparation methods such as acid washing, sanding, etc. maybe required for oxidized wood surfaces. While a single coat application is sufficient on previously sealed surfaces, a two coat application is recommended with most unsealed or sanded wood surfaces. Prior to application of a second coat, make sure that the first coat is full dry to the touch. Depending on the ambient temperature the treated deck should be available for walking and general light use after a couple of hours. Over the next 24 to 48 hours the coating will internally cross link and achieve optimal physical properties.

TeakProtek goes on very easily and dries to a clear nish. It will brighten the appearance of the wood and enhance the wood grain and general patina. Fully cured TeakProtek will show pronounced water beading and provide protection from staining, fungal growth and UV degradation. TeakProtek has good storage stability when kept in air tight containers. It should be stored away from heat and high temperatures.

TeakProtek Coverage

TeakProtek is dictated by the wood’s density and surface preparation. Soft woods tend to absorb more coating. These factors impact the coverage which can range from 250 square feet to 400 square feet per gallon, and possibly greater.

TeakProtek Cleanup

Clean spills, spatters and tools with clean water. Similarly if application was completed via spraying, flush spray equipment with water to prevent clogging and malfuntion.
