Varnishing advice
Looks like this teak we varnished with Cetol is now badly damaged by the sun. :(
We want to strip all the varnish off and leave it bare for now.
What would you recommend to remove the leftover varnish?
We tried with a brush and this is as far as we got...
Looking forward to your thoughts!

This is what Cetol did to our wood when we still used the product 5 years ago.
If you want to leave the wood raw I'd hand-sand the varnish off to bare wood.

Heat gun with a plastic scraper will take it right off, just dont set the gun on high
