Golden Care Teak Instant Grey

Product Information

Ultimately, go with whatever method makes the most sense to you depending on how much time and/or money you want to invest into that perfect vintage/aged look for your woodworking project.

You will come across a great deal of garden furniture made of wood, or with a detail of wood in the 4 Seasons Outdoor collection. Further, subjected to the sun, rain, or snow, the surface of the teak will gradually weather into a soft-silver gray as only the pigments on the surface layer begin to fade. This aged wood accelerator carries the same principles of the weather wood accelerator in that it does a good job of preserving a natural wood look. Once sprayed, every piece is then wet-sanded and buffed if necessary to give them their flawless yacht styled look.Here at Kennings, we have lots of styles and sizes to choose from, so let us help you find the perfect garden building today. The use of sheet materials enables construction using panels, which give the characteristics of timber, without the density, cost, and weight. They are also extremely versatile, fitting into both a modern chic outdoor living space and a classic English garden style. This is a really popular method of aging wood in a matter of minutes, and I made a video about it back in 2016.

Decades of exposure of bare wood to UV rays and the climate of the 4 seasons gives weathered barn wood its characteristic grey colour; not very convenient if you immediately need weathered barn wood for your current project! Without having readily available distressed wood this video and comments provides much of what I need. He also takes into account the changing fashions and environmental considerations, such as using recycled materials, being recyclable at the end of its life and is the timber sourced from forests which have a re-planting policy. Except for the occasional yearly oiling, if at all, ‘oiled’ teak furniture placed indoors or in an enclosed area (not exposed to direct sunlight or rain) is virtually maintenance free. Repeated changes in moisture and exposure to elements like wind and rain can also accelerate the aging of wood.

These simple (and cheap) ingredients can produce a stain that will give wood a natural aged look in a matter of minutes. Untreated, natural teak (without oil) will weather to a handsome silver patina within a year or so, depending on the amount of sun and weathering it is exposed to. Question: If I want to do an image transfer (I saw your YouTube video using ink jet printer on wax paper), do I have to worry about the clarity of the image if I do the transfer on TOP of the stain (considering black tea layered with steel wool/vinegar on top of pine wood for a gray, patina, barn wood look)?
