What are the best wood sanding techniques for restoring teak outdoor seating?
Restoring teak outdoor seating requires careful sanding to maintain its natural beauty and durability. Start by cleaning the surface to remove dirt and old finishes. Use medium-grit sandpaper (80-120 grit) to smooth rough areas and remove imperfections, followed by fine-grit sandpaper (180-220 grit) for a polished finish. Always sand along the wood grain to avoid scratches. For deeper stains or weathering, consider using a power sander with caution. Finish by applying a teak protector to enhance longevity. Regular maintenance with these techniques will keep your teak furniture looking pristine for years.
