Teak indoor furniture - restore colour?

    Hello.

    I have two teak chairs in need of a bit of love.
    The legs are a bit scuffed, but not too bad. The tops of the arms are faded, have ring marks and look a bit.. dehydrated (I don't know if that's the right description!)

    I'm happy to apply a wax polish to finish (thanks to superb advice here on previous project!). But I need to restore the colour to the arms.
    I don't have a shed to work in.
    I can work in the garden, or in the sitting room.
    It sounds like restoring with teak oil might be out for those considerations - is there a product you'd recommend.

    Thanks in advance.

    ;) All depends on what you are trying to achieve. For a general clean up I'd suggest Rustins Furniture Restorer - available in a small jar almost everywhere.
    Rub it on with 0000 wire wool and buff with a cloth.
    Avoid Teak oil as it takes a few days to dry.
