Instant Grey: Brown hardwood turns into a clay-grey color within an hour.
Turns new golden brown teak into old teak. Or maintains the driftwood-grey color of old or reclaimed teak for a longer time. Matches your teak tables with the color of your wicker chairs and cushions. Helps to hide sapwood.
After applying Instant Grey, we strongly recommend treating the surface with our Teak Shield to prevent stains.
Instructions For Use:
* Before using the Instant Grey, eye protection and rubber gloves
should be worn. Cover the ground under your working area before cleaning.
* Before using the Instant Grey on new Teak, put the furniture outside to weather
for a week or fist clean the Teak with our Teak Cleaner.
* Before using Instant Grey on dark Grey Teak, clean the wood with our Teak Cleaner.
If cleaned wood feels rough, sand lightly before treating with Instant Grey. Make sure
the Teak is 100% dry and free of dust.
* Hold closed bottle upside down and shake for at least one minute.
* We suggest you try the Instant Grey on a small area first (e.g. the back of the leg)
to judge if the color meets your expectations.
* Apply a think layer of Instant Grey with a soft cloth.
* Allow to dry for 1 hour and then the wood has turned driftwood-grey. (If you wish
to have a more intense grey color, apply a second thin layer)
* Always treat your Teak Furniture immediately afterwards with our Teak Shield.
Repeat this once per year.
Independent Product Reviews from TrustPilot:
I love the beautiful color of this stain. --Kenneth S., Gladstone, Michigan, May 4, 2018
After 2 or 3 coats, I got the color I wanted. I will use this again and again on future pieces and keep learning what techniques help the product work the best. --Jennie G., Arlington, Texas, April 27, 2018
This product saved the day. I was hired tot refinish a well weathered set of Balinese teak furniture. I found the original Golden Care Teak Protector and told the client that some people object to the orange new teak color but they didn't say anything about it so I went ahead and refinished their furniture with it. Upon delivery they were not happy at all with the color and wanted the old weathered look. The Golden Care Instant Grey rectified this with just one coat! Great product!!! So glad Westminster Teak stocked and was able to ship this to me quickly. --Harlan G., Rancho Mirage, California, October 22, 2019

Patina-ed everything including bamboo! Got the weathered beachy vibe I wanted and used on unknown woods. I'm in love!
Great Look if you want the furniture to grey quickly …
I wanted a subtle grey for my teakwood and it’s perfect. It has a screw on cap which makes it very easy to store.
Did what I had hoped turning our teak furniture grey to match a new set of teak furniture we got that was already weathered grey.
the instant grey work great

I thought it worked better than I thought it would, I refinish outdoor furniture professionally, had a client who liked gray/silver and it was beautiful!
I love the beautiful color of this stain.
After 2 or 3 coats, I got the color I wanted. I'm sure that my errors had more to do with technique/application than the product, but I did run into some trouble spots. The orangey teak of my original piece was still visible somewhat through the grey. I also got a couple of spots that ended up practically black or that pooled up in an unattractive way and I had to try to get them out and refinish them. There were also a couple of spots that were just soooo stubborn, like a 2 inch section that just would not grey. I did try to sand and clean again, but I have no idea what was happening in those spots. I did eventually get them covered, it just took a lot of work. This was my first time using the product, however, so please take that into consideration! I also personally prefer using a sponge brush for application, which I did use this time as well. Directions say to use the provided towel...maybe that would have alleviated some of my issues. Either way, I was very pleased with the overall product despite my errors. I will use this again and again on future pieces and keep learning what techniques help the product work the best.
