I have Barlow Tyrie furniture that I want to clean and then treat with teak oil. However, I have noticed a myriad of wasps on the table, which I have never seen before. Do I clean and treat with teak oil and then Wasp Solution? or just clean?

Dear Chris Thank you for your question. We have been advised that it's always best to clean with warm soapy water and a scrubbing brush before applying any treatment, Make sure the table is completely dry, then use the Wasp Solution first. Once you are happy that the wasp problem has gone, you can then treat with the teak oil. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701.

We have a cedar pergola that the wasps love to devour, it has silvered nicely so we don't want any change of colour. Is this wasp solution suitable to use on cedar wood and does it alter the colour of the wood?

Dear Melanie Thank you for your question. We don't see a problem using this solution on cedar wood. The solution should dry clear, however we have only tested it on weathered teak.

I have a new BarlowTyrie teak table. I have bought Colour Guard, Stain Guard and Anti-Wasp care products. I note that that you advise applying the colour guard before the stain guard. I also note that I should allow the table to weather for two weeks before applying the colour guard. When should I apply the anti-wasp, now or after applying the colour guard or the stain guard?

Dear Peter Thank you for your question. Untreated teak will weather to a soft silver grey patina. If you are happy for the teak table to weather in this way, then do not proceed with the colour guard. If you would prefer to retain the golden brown colour of new teak then proceed with the colour guard. If you are happy with a soft silver grey patina, then you can proceed to apply the teak stain guard. Regarding the anti wasp solution this should be applied last. If you apply colour guard, anti wasp solution may not be required just yet, maybe in a few months. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701.
