So can teak! We were watching a floating concert on July 4th weekend and I had to just let my salt water washdown run to cool the people and the decks. I am planning on installing Tek-Dek or similar over my existing teak deck at some point. Sand it down, soak it with CPES, then apply the synthetic deck. When the budget allows it, probably a year or so from now.
*True, however we have found that some water over Teak brings the temp down pretty quickly, whereas*a neighbours boat with the Synthetic Teak,* seems for more impervious and the water just washes off.

Can you lay a synthetic deck over Teak? Not flamilar with CPES, a sealing compound I guess.
