I disagree with your assertion that poly is the "toughest". I give that
label to C-V. Of course it isn't much fun dealing with Xylene fumes...

I have refinished a Maple dining table, and would like input for what

love the color it is.
I would like something that will obviously resist scratches, since
this will be only for eating at.
Thanks!



Polyurethane is about the toughest. After the last coat resist the
temptation to put the table into use--wait a month or two for the poly
to fully harden then apply a wax.
