Polyurethane, at least three coats- preferrably 6. I like a product called "Last 'n Last", but any reasonable polyurethane (gloss is the most durable) should work well. For new wood, seal the wood with a thin coat (drying time of >20hrs between additional coatings seems best for me). Sand lightly (220 grit or finer- don't use steel wool) between coats. A bristle brush works (and lasts) the best. Clean the brush with mineral spirits.... Bruce 'Measure twice, cut once' Bergmann HP, Fort Collins, Colorado, 80525 hplabs!hpfcla!bruce
