Restoring a 20-year-old teak deck on the Nandji - Frothlyfe involves removing 1,034 screws, plugging the holes with epoxy, and re-caulking the seams to avoid a $40,000 professional replacement cost.0:34 The process requires cutting out old sealant with a hook tool, cleaning seams with acetone, and applying SIS 440 caulking from Teak Decking Systems.1:23 This one-part polymer sealant cures with atmospheric moisture and does not require a primer.11:57 After filling the seams, the crew sands the deck using 40-grit sandpaper followed by a 120-grit finish to level the wood and remove excess caulk.4:13 The project also includes sealing leaking sail track bolts and repairing capping rails with epoxy.5:24 To prevent bubbling, the work occurs under a tent to avoid direct sunlight and high temperatures.12:35 The crew confirms that the teak remains structurally sound without the original screws, as the wood is heavily glued to the sub-deck.11:03 Proper preparation of clean, dust-free seams remains the most time-intensive phase of the restoration.13:04
