You can sand your teak. It won't hurt it. I would use a 220 grit or higher to start with. You can then oil it with teak oil but the oil won't last, I prefer to finish the teak in a satin finish. It will stay looking nice much longer.

Thanks, I installed my window latch and it came out a little crooked, but nothing anybody could notice but me. I dont want to screw up my flagpole installation, so I'm going to have my marina install it. IT should be ready Saturday.
Sorry I just get worried about someone else drilling holes in my boat. I rather mess it up myself. Hope it goes well and post pictures when it's done.
Flagpole is in. It does not sit tight in the base. I might wrap some electrical tape around it to stop the rattle while underway.

No worries AsLan7!! I'll send pics when available.
You pointed out my dirty teak in my last post. I have since powerwashed it and scrubbed it with teak cleaner. It is still black in some places. I was wondering if lightly sanding it would help...or hurt.
You can’t hurt teak. I use steel wool pad and then wipe down with teak oil. 30 year old teak will look like new.

That's one of the differences between the OEM model which uses a spring-turn-and-lock base to keep her secured and free from rattling.
Looks good...just don't lose it!
