I dislike silicone in some areas of use and am therefore doubtful about using it, as I guess once applied it puts paid to applying anything else....possibly for ever! ??

Yes,used it for the past two years on our cockpit seats and gratings,very good stops dirt and green slime build up.Easy to prepare and put on.Nice wood coloured teak for most of the season ,usually needed another application before the winter.
Teak does not sit there wet for long either dries quickly with one coat.
Bits I've wanted to change to varnish just scrubbed off with a teak cleaner or their special stuff,and then varnish over.
That hasn'tpeeled off yet either.

No, it soaks in like water and leaves the surface without any visible surface covering other than a light UV-protection colouring.

I had first sanded my teak decks to remove a propriety oil, which had contained an unidentified varnish of some kind, not referenced on the container and which had left a hardened, patchy and darkened surface. I did that in order to try the next snake oil in a long line of solutions, SEMCO Sealer.

Having finished my 2 litres of that and being pleased with the result, I wanted to expand the teak renovation to the handrails I have on dog-house and cabin top. SEMCO is not available locally but 'Teak Wonder' is. I bought a 1 litre can for 19 euros - half the price I paid for a litre of SEMCO from the UK on-line.

The contents seemed identical to SEMCO, same liquid consistency, colour and smell. It applied identically too and the result looks similar. After a summer's ravages both finishes have hardly weathered at all. In all probability it is the same product.
