I have some lovely teak garden furniture I have had for several years and I am really pleased with it but this year some black spots have appeared on it, What are the black spots, why have they appeared and how do I clean them off? I want the furniture to stay natural looking if possible.

I also have Teak Furniture and have come across the black spots as well. A soft bristle brush and mild detergent (laundry detergent and water) work well. There are also commercially available teak protectors and teak oils.
(We purchased our furniture from CedarStore.com and they have care instructions right on their website.)

www.farawayfurniture.co.uk A comprehensive guide on what to look out for when buying teak garden furniture. It clearly shows the differences ...

it is very hard work sanding it all down each year and repainiting it, there must be an easier way or a product that does not require the sanding down.

The Teak Wood Cleaner is a safe and easy to use product. This formula is designed to remove stains and that weathered look that all outdoor woods get over time. No need to sand the wood after cleaning, as the product does not raise the wood grain. The Teak Wood Brightener is made to brighten teak wood by highlighting the wood grain and enhancing its warm natural color. This product would be used as the second step in restoring your weathered wood. The Premium Teak Wood Oil Outdoor Decor carries gives your teak wood long lasting protection against the elements. The ultraviolet absorbers in the oil helps maintain the warm natural coloring. This particular brand is rated #1 in independent testing, and lasts 4-6 times longer than other standard teak oils. It uses an advanced tung oil polymer formula. They also carry a huge assortment of cushions for teak benches and outdoor dining chairs.

Price: $4.99 $7.48

Made with dual density closed cell polyethylene foam
Soft density inner padding for added comfort
Packaged in two attractive colors .

The only maintenance your furniture requires is a periodic cleaning with a soft bristle brush and mild detergent (laundry detergent and water) work well. There are commercially available teak protectors and teak oils. I do not recommend Teak Oil for outdoor use. It significantly increases the maintenance of your furniture.

Hope this helps!

My 800-lb sculpture is in the garden of a very humid environment. It is 100-yearold teak. Will it rot and disintegrate? How sould I treat it?

Build a gazebo around it to protect it from the elements.

teak it a wood that is used on sailboats and water doesnt have any adverse affect on it. it does have an oily sap so that is why it lasts so long.teak wont warp like oak or maple.
