Working and finishing Teak
Naturally oily and contains silica, giving it a pronounced dulling effect on cutting edges; the natural oils resist rot and make it a premier outdoor/marine wood, though they can interfere with glue bonds unless surfaces are wiped with solvent first.
Its natural oil content makes teak oil (a blended finishing product, not literally extracted from the wood) a traditional choice; also finishes well with exterior oils and marine varnishes. Kingma's plantation-grown teak will generally run lighter and less dense than old-growth material.
Sold as is. Grain, colour and figure vary from piece to piece. Confirm the dimensions your build needs before you buy.
