I used Minwax Polyurethane for my interior. I was able to sand out much of the minor defects in the old varnished floor boards. I put on 3 coats of satin finish. After that I buffed the floors out with a fine rubbing compound to give that hand rubbed look. The Minwax flows out beautifully, leaving no brush strokes. Buffing out the finish removed any dust bunnies. The Minwax site does not recommend using their product over unfinished teak because of potential moisture in the wood problems.

I bought the helmsman interior/Exterior satin for down below, but my buddy has been using the straight polyurethane on his sole, see http://www.personal.psu.edu/faculty/d/r/drf6/Liberty_Project_1/MS_Hatches.ht m I would not second guess him, his boats are always spectacular when he is done. The indoor/outdoor has some softening agents, but they don't think they are needed down below. I will use the straight poly on the floors.
