Scrubbing with a teak cleaning solution with a stiff brush will help restore orange color, light sanding will be even better. Pressure washers can damage the wood fibers and are generally NOT recommended, but I use mine with caution. You can finish with a quality teak oil.
I also use my power washer to clean a lot of other teak patio tables for restaurants and the power washing is definitely the way to go. Would use a 45° tip and cut the pressure down by putting a larger nozzle to let more water flow through the head so you don't destroy the wood and they literally look night and day
I sanded a whole bunch of restaurant teak tables down to take the deteriorated wood off and then I sealed it with a an outdoor Marine urethane and not only do they look beautiful but the urethane keeps the UV rays from destroying the wood and keeps on looking brand new for years
I have used both teak oil and spar urethane both with great results depending on the look and use of each item. Prep is the most important thing. For best results I have four the a good power wash,sanding and sealing are the way to go. Especially if they have been neglected for years. The table I work on are all used in a restaurant setting.
That’s not going to work. You have to get the black out with acid and a sanding. Then use a proper oil. There’s no substitute for elbow grease in wood restoration! 😎

@@Ironhorserider366 hey where did you get your product from?
Just an oil. better results if power washed more aggressively then sand down then apply multiple coats of teak oil
How do they look now? Would you say the oil works well after multiple coats?
Not good. These may work when they're already in good condition and oiling them up gives them longevity. This is what I would guess.
You've got to sand the crap layer off.
It's the only way
100%
You need a pressure washer! That will easily take off the “dead wood” layer.
Sanding works waaaay better.
@@dannunnya3666 I've done both, pressure washing followed by a "spot sanding" is so much better in my opinion.
Like that the product is animal cruelty free. I surprised it doesn’t recommend and sanding at all. Thx for sharing
Just send them and use varnish...

Sand it first!!!
Anyone who doesn't sand teak first, no use to listen to them.
