Product Description
Epifanes Teak Oil Sealer (TO.1000) is a traditional impregnating oil based on linseed oil and alkyd resin, formulated for the maintenance and protection of teak and other marine woods. Unlike varnish or film‑building coatings, Teak Oil Sealer penetrates fully into the wood without creating a surface film.
It enhances the natural color of teak, protects against moisture intrusion and discoloration, and provides a non‑slip, natural finish ideal for high‑traffic teak surfaces such as decks, rails, grips, and exterior trim.
Suitable for interior and exterior use above the waterline in both fresh and saltwater environments.
Important: Not recommended for furniture or seating surfaces, as freshly applied oil may remain tacky and can transfer to clothing.
Sold in 1 liter size containers. Download the technical data sheet here.

Application Instructions
Apply Teak Oil Sealer wet‑on‑wet until the wood is fully saturated. The number of coats depends on the dryness and absorption of the wood. Typically, two coats are sufficient.
- Apply with a wide brush or lint‑free cloth
- Do not use a roller
- Remove excess oil with a clean cloth
- Avoid film build‑up — this product is designed to penetrate, not coat
Important Notes
- Teak deck sealant caution: Teak Oil Sealer can soften rubber compounds in teak deck seams by activating plasticizers. Use with caution around caulking.
- Avoid furniture use. Freshly applied oil can remain tacky and transfer to clothing.
- Maintenance Interval: 1 month to 1 year depending on weather, UV exposure, and foot traffic.
- Safety: Linseed‑oil‑soaked cloths may spontaneously combust. Place used cloths in water or lay flat to dry.
SMSDistributors Expert Notes
- Wet‑on‑wet is essential. Teak Oil Sealer works best when applied repeatedly until the wood stops absorbing.
- Expect no gloss. This is a natural penetrating oil, not a film‑building finish.
- Apply with a wide brush or lint‑free cloth - do not use a roller.
- Perfect for high‑traffic teak. Decks, rails, and grips benefit most from this product’s non‑slip, natural finish.
- Avoid furniture use. Freshly applied oil can remain tacky and transfer to clothing.
- Watch deck seams. Teak Oil Sealer may soften rubber caulking; apply carefully around seam lines.
- Maintenance is simple. Clean, degrease with Epifanes Spray Thinner, and reapply as needed — no sanding required.
- Great for restoring color. Pair with Epifanes Teak‑O‑Clean & Bright when wood is gray or weathered.
