Teak wood is often used for furniture, boats and any other outdoor setting where a durable, weather-resistant surface is required. New teak wood is an attractive golden brown color, but exposure to the elements can leave a silvery gray patina behind. Regular cleaning can remove some of the patina and get rid of mold and mildew, which feed on teak oil and moisture. Clean your weathered teak wood with products made specifically for teak to prevent damage to the wood.
