If your teak furniture require cleaning, this can be done with a normal household bristle brush (Not too hard) and some worm mildly soapy water. Wash down afterwards with clean water. There are also proprietary cleaners on the market which can be used to clean off various deposits and accumulated dirt and stains.

We do not recommend the use of high-pressure hoses. and steel wool or steel wire brushes should not be used at all as any residue left in the grain of the teak furniture will rust and discolor the wood.

If the teak furniture has some stubborn and heavily ingrained stains.  These can be removed by sanding with a fine grade of sandpaper, being sure to work only with the direction of the timber grain.  After sanding stains away like this, if the teak furniture was previously oiled, you may wish to re-oil, or if it had previously been left natural, the fresh teak color exposed by sanding will soon mellow in with the existing silver grey patina.
