Swim Platform treatment

If you do a search on teak care you can find many opinions on what others use and steps they take in maintaining teak. One thing for sure is that teaks requires care. Some methods work better than others, whether you varnish or oil there are positive and negatives to each. I don't like the varnish method as over time it breaks down and is hard to get off, the oil method is repetitive and I don't like having to watch if the oil dried enough or if the kids are tracking it in and all over the seats. What I have found works best for me at least is a clean, sand, apply teak sealer method.

I use Starbrite teak cleaner and bleach. First wash the teak throughly and apply cleaner and let dry completely.
repeat as needed. Once dry I use 400 grit sand paper, then wash again with soap and water. let dry completely. then I apply Starbrite Teak Sealer (not teak oil unless you want to go the oil route here's where you decide) let dry completely. Then I use a 1000 grit sand paper and sand again, rinse with water and let dry. then repeat this step as many times until you get the finish you're looking for. I normally repeat 2 or 3 times. then apply the final coat of sealer. Depending on how much you use your boat this finish will hold up and look brand new for a long time (even years). It can also be touched up as needed following the sand and seal steps.

With trial and error you will find what works best for you.
Here are the results I get using this method.

Swim Platform on my 1978 Nautique is looking a little worn. Any recommendations on what to treat it with to recondition it. Thanks.
