Default Re: Which teak oil?

I used the rustins varnish to do exactly the same thing a few years back, make pine look teak like. To be honest I made a complete shambles of it! But the varnish was good!

The advice I'd give is get several different grades of sandpaper (400, 600, 1000, 2000). The last 2 if you're going for something glossy and want to buff it up afterwards. Do many light coats and lightly sand with 600 grit between. And as others have said practice the method a little on scrap wood first
