The Complete Wood & Teak Care Guide
What to use, in what order, and how often — so your teak keeps its golden glow for years.
Your teak shower bench, cutting board, or outdoor furniture ships with a protective factory finish. Like any natural hardwood, that finish needs a little ongoing care to stay water-resistant and keep its rich color. The good news: it only takes a few minutes, and there are just a handful of products doing the heavy lifting. Here’s exactly how they work together.

1. Loveable® Teak & Bamboo Furniture Cleaner (32 oz)
Your everyday cleaner. pH-neutral, EPA Safer Choice, lemongrass scent. Lifts soap scum without stripping the finish.

2. Loveable® Teak & Wood Protective Oil (24 oz)
Feeds and moisturizes the wood, restoring the deep golden-honey color once the finish starts looking dry or dull.

Routine 1: Everyday Care for Shower Benches & Indoor Teak
For pieces in your EarthyTeak® or Woodland Brown factory finish.
| 1 | Rinse with clean water after every use. Soap and shampoo residue left sitting on teak will slowly break down the finish. |
| 2 | Wash weekly to monthly with Teak & Bamboo Furniture Cleaner. Don’t forget the underside of the seat, where residue collects. |
| 3 | Apply Teak Protective Oil once the finish looks dry, pale or dull. This re-moisturizes the wood and revives its color. |
| 4 | Optional — seal it in with Teak Protexion. Applied right after the oil has soaked in, for extra moisture and mildew resistance. |
Routine 2: Restoring Weathered Outdoor Teak
For decks, patio furniture, docks, or any teak that has grayed, dulled, or picked up tannin/rust stains from the elements.
| 1 | Deep-clean with the 2-in-1 Cleaner & Brightener Gel. Strips old finish, weathering, and stains without sanding. Let the wood dry fully. |
| 2 | Nourish with Teak Protective Oil. Restores the golden tone and re-conditions the grain. |
| 3 | Protect with Teak Protexion Sealer. Locks in the oil and shields against rain and humidity. |
| 4 | Maintain with light cleanings using the Teak & Bamboo Cleaner between deep restorations. |
