I seem to recall reading several years ago about using a mild solution of oxalic acid to help partially bleach teak to get a more even color. The teak ceilings in the forepeak on my boat are a mess and will require stripping the remaining varnish and then attempting to even out the color prior

Charlie: After you remove the water stains, I would highly recommend using a stain to get all the teak to match in shade. I was able to buy the original stain used in our C&Cs on Amazon. I’ve mentioned the exact stain and provided a link to buy it in my blog some time ago. I will try to look
