An environmentally friendly product for refinishing your teak, hemp wood finishing oil is an all-natural product made from one ingredient only: pure Canadian oxidized hemp oil. This nontoxic oil is marine safe making it the perfect product to use out on the water.

Hemp wood finish penetrates deeply into teak protecting the wood from the inside out. This solvent-free and breathable oil expands and contracts with wood surfaces allowing any moisture trapped within to escape with the changing temperatures and humidity we experience throughout the boating season.

Once applied, it creates a protective water-resistant and scratch-resistant surface. Instead of producing a shiny film commonly developed by synthetic topcoats, hemp wood oil produces a patina finish, creating a unique and rich look to your teak. And if accidentally spilled into the water, it makes a nutritious snack for aquatic life!

Hemp Oil Application(Right) Application

To apply, make sure your teak is well cleaned and dry. Simply use a brush, roller or rag as your application method. Drying time between coats is approximately 24 hours. Reapply as required to keep your teak well coated for protection and appearance. Average coats per refinish is 1-3. Protection lasts one to two years depending on your teak.

Hemp oil is regarded as nature’s most nutritious oil reaping endless purposes and benefits. Prior to prohibition, hemp oil was the finishing oil of choice in the paint industry and has since then come a long way. Now more than ever it’s important to continue to be environmentally conscious especially when it comes to our actions on the water. Hemp wood oil can additionally be used for any interior and exterior wood surfaces. It’s an all-around environmental and food safe finishing oil with no harmful vapours.

You can purchase this versatile finishing oil at a number of Canadian based retailers:

Don’t Bug Me!

I’m on vacation! Things can turn ugly in paradise when you finally reach that secluded anchorage. You set the hook and kill the engines, but the buzzing sound continues…you are not alone! Black flies, mosquitoes, wasps and of course, the little army of invisible spiders that you accidentally brought with you, all emerge in the stillness, buzzing around looking for something, or someone to munch on. Hopefully, you packed the AfterBite, lotions, antiseptic, cotton balls, antihistamine for those with allergies, BandAids and other first aid items, but the best route is to protect yourself from being bitten in the first place.

However, by embracing innovative solutions and adopting sustainable practices, both marinas and boaters hold the key to preserving and enhancing the quality of our lakes and marine life for generations to come.
