There is no clear finish that will holdup outside in the weather...
under a patio roof maybe, but not when exposed to direct rain/sunlight
on a daily basis. If you want to protect the wood from damage, paint
it. Paint is the only finish that will last in outdoor environments and
provide all the necessary protection the wood needs.


Even if it is reapplied regularly? I know nothing, not even paint, can
be applied once and forgotten. My plan was to find something that I
could reapply every year or two or as needed.
