Default Best finish for Oak kitchen table?

wrote in message
oups.com...
My oak kitchen table (about 15 years old) has a finish that is almost
worn off, and has become very stickey and hard to clean. So, I sanded
the top with an orbital sander.

What finish should I put on it, assuming it will get a lot of use,
spills, and kids abuse? I want to use a clear, easy to apply finish
with good wear resistance...any ideas?

Thanks!


My first choice would be a conversion finish of some kind...like a
precatalyzed lacquer. However, if you're not set up to spray, a good
polyurethane would do the job.
