Teak Live Edge Care & Maintenance Guide

Live edge teak wood furniture will require extra care to maintain the orginal look of log wood.

Care:

 

bulletOur Teak Live Edge log wood products are sealed with our teak oil. Regular maintainance and care if required to keep the fresh look and cleanliness of the products.
bulletLive Edge requires very little maintenance to remain water and stain proof.
bulletApply regular outdoor sealer and wood contional once a week for the first four weeks, and once a month thereafter. This polishing not only restores the luster of the top but will help to protect it from any nicks or dings in the wood.
bulletPolishing can also minimize and seal minor scratches.
bulletBe aware that some residual moisture within the wood may be released during the first heating season or Winter. This may result in some shrinking around the areas with resin.
bulletAll wood tops, including live edge, respond to temperature and humidity and will change shape somewhat with the seasons. Slight misalignments of boards and cracks may appear seasonally – this is normal..
bulletA certain amount of checking (small cracking at the end grain) is normal for solid live edge wood log wood. This will not affect the structural integrity of your top.

Maintenance:

 

bulletFor outdoor live edge wood furniture and structure, we suggest that you apply Linseed Oil or Tung Oil to the wood rim seasonally to prevent water from entering under dings or cuts that may have occurred.

For bark on live edge teak wood log, the bark will aged eventually, you may removed the bark and that will give you a different live edge wood furniture.
