Wood Trim on MONTAUK console
Are the console doors and trim on a Montauk 17 teak or mahogany?

Re: Teak Coating Products
Thank you. [Montauk console doors and trim] are in decent shape, but were varnished at some point. I'd prefer to go back to oil or something other than varnish.
What do most here use on teak?
I was thinking Cetol.

Re: Teak Coating Products
I do not like CETOL. It has too much pigmentation and turns beautiful wood into yellow-orange ugly wood.
I have no idea "what most here" use for protecting teak. I can tell you what I have used with reasonable results: WATCO TEAK OIL.

Re: Wood Trim on MONTAUK console
I use West Marine Teak oil. Seems like it works well. Eventually the oil will build up on the teak and you will have to clean the old built up old oil.
I just redid some of the wood after taking the boat out of storage.

There are different Cetols. The orange is nasty ugly.

I use Z-Spar Captains 1015. Great stuff, but I use a mooring cover most of the time that keeps sun and water out of the boat.
