[Public-List] One more maintenance question - interior wood

[James Allocco]

I too have white streaks from washing mildew off of the interior wood using
a bleach solution. I used to use Teak oil for a lovely patina but I
coccerned that teak oil my encorage mildew growth in humid North Carolina.
Does anyone have an opinion?

Thanks
