\nMany people prefer wooden teak furniture because it\u2019s a natural material that elevates the aesthetic value of both exterior and interior spaces. It\u2019s also relatively easy to maintain, especially when you use the right finishing routine for teak indoor furniture<\/a>.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n


\nHowever, quite a few people still make mistakes when caring for teak. You need to understand the right method so the surface stays in good condition and keeps its shine. Not all oils are suitable for teak furniture because some can affect the texture and the natural aroma of the wood. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to choose oils that are commonly recommended by experts.

The Recommended Oils for Your Teak Furniture<\/b><\/h2>\n


\nLinseed oil is one of the most popular wood coatings in the world. This oil can penetrate deep into the wood fibers to help protect your teak furniture from scratches and humidity changes, while also helping it look refreshed.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n


\nTung oil is another option. It\u2019s a vegetable oil made from the seed of the tung tree, which grows in East Asia. Tung oil is widely used as a wood coating because it helps keep the wood fibers durable. Using tung oil can make your teak furniture look renewed, shinier, and more water-resistant.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n


\nMineral oil is also an option for polishing teak furniture. It\u2019s clear and odorless, and it\u2019s commonly used for kitchen wood products such as cutting boards and wooden bowls. That\u2019s why it can also be applied to teak furniture.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n


\nMineral oil is considered a safe type of oil with no toxicity. Another fact is that mineral oil is used as a basic ingredient in baby oil and has been tested and approved for dermatological use.

Steps to Apply Oil to Your Teak Furniture<\/b><\/h2>\n


\nWhen you apply teak oil, the first step is preparing the surface of the teak furniture you\u2019re going to polish. Remove any existing paint or varnish, then clean all surfaces from dust. Make sure the surface is completely dry before applying any oil.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n


\nFor the best result, apply the oil in three coats. Use a lint-free cloth, or a good quality brush, to cover all surfaces, then let it absorb for about 30 minutes. After that, reapply the second coat in the same way and wait for 20\u201330 minutes. Repeat once more for the third coat. Finally, let your teak furniture sit for at least 48 hours before you clean or use it normally.
