Best Way to Restore/Refinish Old Weber Wood Handles?
« on: January 18, 2016, 08:37:20 PM »
What's the best way to clean and restore old wood Weber handles?  My grill was made in 1982.  What kind of wood was used for the handles?  Teak?

Have any pics of the existing handles?  I've been able to refinish many with some coarse & ultra fine sandpaper, new stain, & spar varnish. Otherwise, you can purchase some Zavod handles

Obviously looking for a Glen Blue (who isn’t?😂).

Looking for anything Happy Cooker, including any re-branded as Montgomery Ward.  I’ve amassed a nice collection, but I’m missing a few still.  Let me know if you can help a fella out🤞

I sand them as little as possible and apply several coats of Watco Teak Oil.
