even over here where our sun isn't so harsh keeping it covered
is the Key,

I used to use Deks Olje, it goes on like an oil for the first few coats
and after about 6 coats it builds up like varnish.

It looks like they have a 2 part system now.

Looks really good when done but still lifts from teak in the sun, Teak has a
high oil content and tight grain so it's hard to get anything to stick.
I know my customer whos a wooden boat builder uses a 2 part epoxy
to varnish his wood with and that seems to last a long while.
