Yes, to remove the grey or dark look and bring teak to the blondish look that you see in pictures on new yachts and such. All you have to do is clean the teak or lightly sand it. It's not an issue. You may have to replace the teak decks on an older boat, the thickness of the existing teak decks will tell you. If the decks are cleaned with an abrasive 2 part cleaner like snappy teaknu, it will remove a little bit of the teak each time it is cleaned and eventually you won't have any wood left after many years.......
