True Teak

This hardwood species has been traditionally used for shipbuilding, but recently has gained great appeal as flooring. Natural oils in the wood can interfere with stain, so it is recommended to either use a solvent before staining is attempted or to use water-based finishing. Invariably, True Teak will darken to a golden brown with light and oxygen exposure.
