CPES and teak

Post by Jay Peters »

Has anyone used CPES with any of the alternative teak finishes such as Cetol, Armada, & etc.? I'd love to hear about your experience. Thanks, Jay

Hi Jay - I just finished putting 4 coats of Armada on the teack of my TY. It looks great, with no "orangish" look that Z-Tol gives. I had to really get after the teak to get down to the hard wood, and would certainly recommend proper preparation. It lasts about a year and I'll be happy to report how it holds up in the Houston/Galveston area.
