Repaint wood Trim

If the trim is teak, you need to take special steps. I assume by saying 'repaint' the trim was painted. How does that look; just dull and old, flaking off or peeling in spots, stained from underneath, etc. It is a lot easier to pain previously painted surfaces that are just worn as opposed to peeling.

On a positive note, the older and more dried out the trim is, the better it will take paint

I would assume it's the Duracrap. If it's that going by the year you would sand with 220, prime and paint. I like the Alexseal products but you could use a decent single stage paint from Interlux. I'll be doing mine in the coming weeks.
