Teak Guard

A water based teak sealer from Australia that is advertised to protect the wood against oxidation. I found some good testimonials scattered around the worldwide web.

The bulwarks were rebuilt with new teak about 15 months ago. The boat has been under cover for most of that time but nevertheless the teak had grayed a bit. We sanded the the bulwarks to a like new honey color with 120 grit sand paper then applied two coats of Teak Guard. Looks great, but will it hold up to summer sun?
