Exterior Teak Products?

I want to sand smooth then re-finish the teak hand rails on my boat, as well as the wood trip around the cockpit and main hatch.  What is the best product to use on the wood?  Both in overall appearance, durability, and providing protection for the wood from the effects of the sun.  I heard Marine Cetol as one suggestion.  Any others?  Thanks for any tips!

Read 'Varnish or Cetol', presently on page 4 of the Forum, for a range of opinions.

Re: Exterior Teak Products?

Hi budsfan,
        For about 5 years now, we've used a product called "Armada" on our exterior teak with pretty good success. I would describe it a sort of cross between varnish and stain.(The solvent is paint thinner).  Armada has a low luster and a light to med. brownish tone. It is quite durable but one of its best features is that a scratch or a chip can be touched up without any preparation (sanding etc.) and the repair blends in nicely (similar to touch-up paint on your car). I first discovered "Armada" when it was reviewed favourable in "Practical Sailor" mag.
