Golden Care Teak Cleaner

I used on my teak porch furniture and it protects well. Since I am in Florida, the furniture is subjected to lots of heat and humidity- this protects well and nice finish.

Great product. Took a little more time to receive than expected. Did a great job of cleaning our teak rocking chairs.

These Golden Care teak cleaner and teak protector are great products and easy to use. First you do need to sand the wood until you see the natural golden color. This year I used an electric sander and it went very quickly. I recommend sanding, cleaning, and protecting every other year. We leave the set out uncovered from spring-fall. It possibly could go longer if the set was covered while not in use. I used a plastic scrub brush with the cleaner and a sponge brush to apply the protector. I am very pleased with the results!

Based on other reviews, my application for this product was somewhat unusual, so I wanted to write up my experience in case it can be helpful to others. I have a new construction house with a teak porch that the builder very sloppily stained with a horrible orange-y stain. The teak was not uniformly golden (I suspect because it's a different grade than that used for furniture--some boards darker than others). I let the stain weather off over the winter and then used Golden Care Teak Cleaner to prepare the porch for application of Semco Teak Sealer. The most-exposed sections of the porch were already beginning to weather silver. The Golden Care did not entirely remove the silver color, but I suspect because I was using it to clean a very large area, I didn't use it in the concentration one might use for furniture. However, the entire porch looked brighter, cleaner, and must closer to its original color. My only concern was that the directions call for protecting the ground underneath and rinsing well after. As I was dealing with a porch, I had no choice after rinsing but to let the water run off the edges. Luckily, I don't have any plants growing directly next to the porch, hopefully the product was sufficiently diluted not to cause any environmental harm.

I have a very nice, very expensive 72" teak table, with 6 chairs. It's about 14 years old, and over those years, it's been outside in Massachusetts, in the 90* heat in July, and the -20* covered in a foot of snow in Febuary. It's developed a grey patina, but also a lot of mold/moss... and is that flowery green stuff lichen? I don't even know. Or want to. Been meaning to clean this set for years, and finally bought this Golden care cleaner and I'm very happy. I have arthritis and tire easily, so it's slow going, but it's definitely working. As a sponge I actually am using a scotch sponge, with the sponge on one side and the green scrubby on the other, mostly because it's all I had under the sink, but the green scrubby side is working wonderfully well, and is more easily handled than the large scrubber that came with the cleaner. Finishing up the first chair and you can see the difference in the photo I've posted. I'll post more photos when I'm done, which may take a while, but an able bodied person should find this to be a fairly easy and relatively quick process. I'm so pleased!

It was not as easy to use as the packaging suggested. It did clean the areas were the prior finish had worn off. It will not remove prior finishes, such as "teak oil". I will have to try something else next spring to remove the teak oil finish.

I live in the country and I have a lot of teak furniture. I think teak is beautiful and durable. Unfortunately, teak turns gray over time. I dread it, but I have to clean and restore my teak furniture. This is the product I have used for many years. I am totally satisfied with this cleaner and its companion products. I still hate cleaning my teak, but the results are worth it.

I have used Golden Care Teak Cleaner twice in the last 3 years after reading mulitple reviews and instructions on how to clean and protect your teak furniture. It is incredible how with just one application, you can really see the difference and the furniture that you thought was weathered beyond repair can look like new again. It's very easy to use and the results were beautiful. Next time, I will take some before/after pictures.

The teak cleaner worked as advertised. Easy to use and the teak colour started to come through beautifully. You do have to rinse very well.

We bought this product to clean an outdoor teak table and chairs. It took way too long to get the product (reason unknown). We followed the instructions on the bottle but, after two applications, my chairs look exactly the same. This product has had zero effect. I was looking for something that was an alternative to power washing (results in damage to wood) but this is not it. Don't waste your time and money.

It brought the the "original colour" back for the most part. But there were some areas that I needed to sand to erase the mildew probably because the last time I cleaned it was 2 yrs ago.

Didn't clean as expected. Ended up using it 4 times to get better results and still wasn't great. Should have returned it. Don't waste your money.
