Oh sorry I was stuck on interior finish. I totally agree about the exterior going grey. On my exterior wood I was very pleased with the results of Cetol's SDR natural teak. The product is not made specifically for marine use. SDR stands for siding, deck, and (something...railing?). I used it because it doesn't leave a glossy finish that needs maintained.
