Riffe Wood Speargun Maintenance Kit – Wood Finish & Teak Care

Revitalize and protect your Riffe teak stock with the Wood Finish Maintenance Kit

Your wood speargun stock deserves care that matches its rugged performance. The Riffe Wood Finish Maintenance Kit is designed to condition teak, bring back a smooth, even sheen, and help slow the effects of drying after long days in saltwater and sun. This kit is a practical, at home solution that blends cleaning, conditioning, and sealing in a single package. While individual results will vary, regular use can contribute to a more even finish and a more confident feel in the hand during dives and hunts.

What’s inside

• Two 4 oz bottles: one penetrating oil to balance moisture, and one laminating finish to seal and deepen the look
• Sandpaper in multiple grits: two 80, two 40, and two 600 for prep, smoothing, and final polish
• Clear instructions with simple steps to follow for best results

Why this matters for teak stocks

Teak has natural oils and a warm grain that can narrate your dives with a subtle glow. The penetrating oil helps promote even penetration into fibers, while the laminating layer can create a durable surface that resists superficial wear. The included sanding sheets let you tailor the surface to your current finish, from lightly refreshed to a deeper, satin like look.

How to use the kit

1. Clean and dry the wood stock thoroughly to remove salt and residue
2. Lightly sand the surface with the 40–80 grit sheets to smooth rough spots
3. Apply a thin coat of penetrating oil and let it absorb for a few minutes
4. Wipe away excess, then apply the laminating finish in a thin, even layer
5. Let dry completely before handling or reassembly; lightly buff with 600 grit if needed

Real-world use cases

• Preparing after a season: refresh the wood’s tone and hand-feel before the next dive
• Seasonal maintenance: quick touch-ups can help keep the stock looking uniform across sessions
• On the boat: a compact kit for spot maintenance during trips, when you want to preserve the stock’s natural warmth

Tips for best results

• Test the finish on a hidden area first to confirm your preferred look
• Use thin coats; avoid heavy buildup that can obscure grain
• Store the kit in a cool, dry place between uses to maintain product consistency
