Staining a teak table can be a difficult and tedious process. If done incorrectly, the results can be disastrous. However, if done the right way, your teak table can look like new. If you follow these steps, you can give your teak table a beautiful finish and make it look like it just came from a furniture store.
Step 1: Preparation
The first step to staining a teak table is to make sure the surface is clean and free of dirt and debris. Use a clean cloth to wipe down the surface of the table and remove any dust or dirt. If necessary, use a soft-bristle brush to scrub away any stubborn dirt. Once the surface is clean, allow it to dry completely before proceeding.
Step 2: Sanding
Once the surface is clean and dry, it’s time to begin sanding. Use a medium-grit sandpaper to sand the entire surface of the table. This will help to remove any old varnish or stain that is on the surface. Work your way up to a finer grit sandpaper for a smooth finish. Make sure to sand in the direction of the grain of the wood for the best results. Once you have finished sanding, use a clean cloth to remove any dust or debris.
Step 3: Applying the Stain
Once the surface is properly prepared, it’s time to begin applying the stain. Start by selecting the stain that you want to use. There are many different tints and hues of teak stain available, so take your time to pick the one that is right for your table. Once you have selected the stain, use a clean rag to apply it to the surface. Work in small sections and use a circular motion to ensure that the stain is applied evenly. Make sure to work in the direction of the grain of the wood for the best results.
Step 4: Finishing
Once the stain has been applied, it’s time to finish the table. Use a clean cloth to wipe off any excess stain. Once the surface is dry, use a clear finish such as varnish or polyurethane to seal the table and protect it from moisture and wear. Allow the finish to dry completely before using the table.
