Cleaning your Teak Bath Mat
Teak is easy to keep clean and in new condition.
Being that teak is naturally resistant to water, mildew, insects, and other natural deterioration that commonly plagues wooden products, you will not have to spend a lot of time caring for your teak bath mat. However, with any product, you can enjoy even greater longevity and more reliability from a teak bath mat if you spend a little bit of time occasionally to care for it.
Cleaning a teak bath mat is about as easy as dusting out a rug. Every few weeks or so, it would be helpful to pick up your teak bath mat and ensure the entire piece is completely dry. Clean off any leftover water with a towel or sponge. You should also make sure to wipe off any debris that has built up on the surface of the bath mat.
Every once in a while, it is a good idea to rub down your teak bath mat with a mild wood oil to preserve its shine and water resistance. Murphy’s wood oil, or Block wood and bamboo oil are good choices, as they are mild and made especially for wood. After the entire bath mat is covered, leave it out in the air to dry for an hour or two.
That’s it! That’s all it takes to care for a teak bath mat.
