Water based poly oughta work OK.

I'm painting some wood storage cubes for my sons' bedroom. I'd like to use
some of the extra wall paint so I don't have to buy more. We used Ben

Moore
washable flat latex on the walls, but I'd like to have a bit more gloss on
the cubes. Can I put a few coats of clear polyurethane over the paint when
I'm done to give it the gloss, or do I have to go out and buy gloss paint

in
the same color (something I'd like to avoid). If I can, should I use water
or oil-based polyurethane?
Thanks.
