I use ammonia (+TSP if there is a lot of grunge) as first steps of interior teak prep. Might take 6-7-8 applications to get the teak almost ready. Final prep I use 220 or 320 grit on a random orbital sander or sand by hand. I'm trying Minwax Valspar WATER based satin, semi-gloss and gloss to finish the interior of my new-to-me Cal-31. Very happy with the results so far. Avoid the non-waterbased Valspar. It's hard to work with. I used to have a C&C 33-1. (Irma snatched her.) --Bob M
