Golden Care Teak Protector

Golden Care Teak Protector is a water-based colour protector designed to help maintain the warm golden-brown look of outdoor teak for longer. It can last up to 4 times longer than traditional teak oil and up to twice as long as teak sealers, while keeping a more natural-looking finish. Finish Guide Honey Brown: deepens the teak by a couple of shades and gives it a richer, more vibrant honey-brown look. Blonde: gives a lighter finish that stays closer to the look of raw teak. Why Use It Helps maintain the original honey-brown / golden-brown look of teak Water-based, solvent-free and non-flammable Designed to preserve a natural look rather than a heavy coated finish Can be paired with Golden Care Teak Shield for added water- and dirt-repellent protection Before You Apply Clean the teak thoroughly first, ideally with Golden Care Teak Cleaner. New teak should either be cleaned to remove natural oils or allowed to weather outdoors briefly before treatment. If the wood feels rough after cleaning, sand lightly. Make sure the surface is 100% dry, smooth and dust-free before applying. Test on a small hidden area first to make sure the colour suits your furniture. How To Apply Shake and stir well before use. Apply the Teak Protector liquid onto a clean, dust-free cloth or rag first, then wipe it onto the timber in a very thin, even coat. This helps spread the product evenly before it dries. Do not pour or squirt the product directly onto the furniture. If needed, apply a second very thin coat after the first coat has dried. Allow 24 hours drying time before use or before applying any other Golden Care treatment. If you want added water- and dirt-repellent protection, apply Golden Care Teak Shield after the Protector has fully dried. Apply Protector first, then Shield, never the other way around. Important Care Notes Do not apply directly over teak that has been treated with teak oil or sealer without cleaning first, as this can cause discolouration. Cover the ground before application to help avoid staining paving, decking or grass. Avoid contact with other materials where possible. If spilled, rinse immediately with water. Once fully dry, treated furniture can be left outdoors. Golden Care generally recommends reapplying around once a year, or more often in harsher weather conditions. If you prefer teak to weather naturally to a silver-grey patina, Golden Care recommends Teak Shield rather than a colour protector. Safety Notes Use outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Wear gloves and eye protection during application. Keep out of reach of children and keep the container tightly closed when not in use.
