However, you may have avoided buying teak outdoor furnishings because you have heard of the laborious nature that you have to take care of it – not true! At least not any more.

In days gone by the only way to really care for your teak wood was to use teak oil and clean and oil your teak furnishings – often. This was very time consuming and although it kept the teak looking great – it wasn’t so great for a person that already has a tightly scheduled day.

There are two great helpers that will help you avoid this and keep your teak looking the way you want. You have two main choices when it comes to your teak furniture. You can let the pretty silvery gray color form on your teak furnishings from exposure to the elements (called patina) and then keep that maintained to keep your wood in good shape. Or you can opt to keep your teak as close to the beautiful golden brown that teak is naturally.

To keep the patina look, just clean with soap and water and let completely dry. If you want to keep the golden brown color or remove the silvery gray patina, it’s a fast, two-step process using Teak Cleaner. Then after cleaning and drying out the furniture, using Teak Protector as a top coat on your furniture. This will leave a protective layer as well as a luster that will keep your teak furniture look9ing beautiful for years to come. This process only needs to be done seasonally to maintain and protect your teak.

Teak is a hardwood harvested from tropical hardwood trees. There are three main types of teak wood, common teak, dahak teak and Philippine teak. All of these types of teak have the same qualities: easy to work with, weather resistant and longevity of use. The secret of teak wood’s ability to stand up to the elements is the natural oils that are resident in the wood and even when not treated with oil or varnish.

Teak has long been used as the primary wood for the decks of boats as it will take repeated exposure to even the harshness of salt water without bowing or becoming brittle. Another use for teak that has long been known is for doors, window frames, furniture, columns and beams in old type houses as it is very resistant to the attack of termites.

These qualities make teak ideal for your outdoor patio furniture. Even just a teak table and a few teak chairs to lounge around your pool or garden area will make a difference in the look and feel of your outdoor living space. There’s no point making an investment in your outdoor living furnishing if they are only going to fall apart in a few years and need to be replaced. It’s a far wiser move to spend a little more on quality made teak patio furniture and have a set you can be proud to use for years to come because of the durability and beauty of teak-made items.
