Just curious, why would you want to do 5 coats of Cetol followed by 3 coats of Cetol Gloss? The instructions on the can recommend 3 coats followed by 1 gloss, or 2 gloss if 1 gloss isn't satisfactory. But 8 coats is something I've only ever heard of for varnish, and the lower # of coats required with Cetol is one of its primary advantages. 4 coats on handrails last year took me quite a while, so I can't imagine wanting to do 8! -Patrick On Wed, Mar 1, 2017 at 1:54 PM, < cnc-list-requ...@cnc-list.com > wrote: From: RANDY < randy.staff...@comcast.net > To: cnc-list < cnc-list@cnc-list.com > Cc: Bcc: Date: Wed, 1 Mar 2017 18:53:08 +0000 (UTC) Subject: Re: Stus-List Exterior Teak Varnish Recommendation? Thank you all for the responses and recommendations. For better or worse I've decided to go with Sikkens Cetol Natural Teak followed by Sikkens Cetol Gloss; probably five coats of the former and three coats of the latter initially. Factors in my decision included recommendations from this list, expected look, reported durability, price (my second choice, Awlwood MA, is a comparatively expensive system), and effort to use properly. This season I will also clean up other exterior teak besides the new handrails, and treat it with the same Cetol treatment after cleaning. _______________________________________________ This list is supported by the generous donations of our members.
