It would help if you said what you were going to do with the product. If you're planning on using it to replace an existing teak deck, I'd highly recommend you not do so. Most teak decks are fastened by screws and removing them and sealing the screw holes after removing the teak deck is generally the best thing you can do for a boat, especially if the boat has a cored deck—as the screws are often points where water gets into the core material and causes the deck core to rot or delaminate.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
