The Ditec Marine teak preservation system is a three-step process using Ditec Marine teak clean, triton, and bioclear. The first step is cleaning detect marine tea clean eliminates the need for two-part cleaning and destructive cleaning methods the ultra-low ph of 0.18 reacts with the wood surface and makes the wood as bright as freshly sanded requiring less effort and less maintenance long term always use a medium density polypropylene pad for cleaning always scrub the teak with the wood grain not across the wood grain detect marine tea clean does not soften or dissolve...

the wood surface so the most effective method is along the grain structure rinse your polypropylene cleaning pad regularly and remove all of the wood fiber scrubbed from the surface complete this step until after rinsing there are no more wood fibers in the polypropylene pad at this point you can be assured that the teak is clean bright and ready to go step two is disinfecting and sanitizing detect marine bioclear is an effective persistent sanitizer to deal with microbial elements such as mold mildew and algae detect marine bioclear should be used on a weekly or bi-weekly basis simply apply detect marine bioclear using a pump sprayer misting the product onto the surface and allowing it to dry the final step is protecting detect marine triton is a durable and effective wood protector that binds to the wood fibers and does not seal the wood surface this allows the wood to stay in its natural look and feel and yet provide hydrophobic water resistant and oleophobic oil resistant properties as well as uv protection to keep the teak looking golden brown for a longer period of time
