There has been considerable discussion on Teak refinishing on this list. I just found another report on another list from someone who used Armada. Since it's rather lengthy, I don't want to reproduce the whole report here but if wished, send it out privately. Here is an overview: >>>First, West Marine has bought a major chunk of Armada's production and is selling it as 'Wood Pro' - both the satin and glossy version are available for roughly $25/quart. After a year with the Armada Satin finish, there is no detectable wear or sunburn on our foredeck, the colors remain consistent, there are no cracks in the coating, and no thin spots. This summer we hired a fellow who lives on the next dock to help us to burn off the old varnish and sand down the side decks - it's embarrassing how much better someone who does finishes for a living is than us amateurs. Working with a heat gun, scraper, 6" orbital, and a Fein detail sander, Sam got the side decks almost perfectly fair - no cupping, no divots, no bulging Polysulphide seam compound.<<< George of Scaramouche
