You can stain it to the darkness/color you want. Just stain and wipe per the directions. As far as teak oil goes, I use no less than 3 coats, applied per the manufacturer's directions. Nice thing about teak oil is the way it brings the grain out, and if it gets messed up, you can simply put more on.

hi, what I'm asking is how much of each should I buy at the store?
gallon? quart? 2 quart? and the oil? gallon? quart? or what?

A quart of either will cover about 150 square feet, according to the cans I bought for my wood working. Teak oil may cover less, depending on how many coats it takes.

2 coats of stain, 2 coats of oil. per instructions

Mine took over two guards of oil. But I did use a da sander to force it into the wood
