We also have water stained areas on our floor boards and will eventually want to refinish them. Once we remove the old finish, what is the recommended recommended varnish? I am presuming a good quality spar varnish, and I don't want to start a proverbial "varnish war". :^) That said, gloss? semi-gloss? satin? Also, we'll have a number of spots around the windows and such, being vertical, rather than horizontal areas. What's best for those? They appear flatter from a finish perspective, and I would like to avoid clashing.

It will take multiple applications. I generally make the solution stronger than the label says. It is a mild acid so be careful what you get it on, including yourself. It may not remove the entire stain but it certainly lighten it Joel On Wed, Apr 26, 2017 at 9:13 AM robert via CnC-List <[email protected]> wrote: My floor boards are the usual teak and holy veneered. Some years back I painted the bottoms and sides with resin. However I forgot/missed one side on one floor board and of course, water got in and dark stained an approx. 1 square foot section. I presume I have two options to deal with the darkened section, 1) replace the floor board, or 2) live with it. Question: is there a 3rd option I am not aware of?
