Default Decks Olje - Is it really different?

I heard some nice things about Decks Olje in the Le Tonkinois thread
down below. In the same vein, I would like to know, is it just a teak
oil with some additives that make it a little longer lasting and nicer
underfoot or is it significantly different?

I'd buy it for my teak based on what I heard but it only comes in
paint type cans at the store I was in and I'd much prefer screw tops
for storage on the boat and convenience in wetting our rags for
occasional touch up.

There's also the price and I note that Practical Sailor prefers
something else (I've forgotten which). If it's all about the same, I
would put up with slightly less durability and appearance for more
convenient packaging and better price. It's going over previously
varnished teak so it isn't going to be true Bristol fashion anyway.

However, if it is significantly different in composition or
durability, I'd like to know.

oh yeah baby, it's more than just a teak oil! Longer lasting? I put one
capful per gallon of gas in the tank of my PWC. I figure I get about an
extra 15hp outa that phat bastid. And the exhaust is lemony fresh!

You need to get your hearing checked.

Pure smoke and mirrors in a can courtesy of the Flood Company, Hudson, OH.

Nice part of the country, nice farm Flood calls home, but not much in
the can.
