"Had a quick look in b and q and noticed the internal doors in knotted
pine for £25 each. I actually thought the knotted ones looked better
than the clear ones, plus they are quite a bit cheaper.

With pine doors what kind of finish is recommended? What's the easiest
way to protect the wood?"

Hi,

First of all have a look in Wickes as they may be cheaper, they certainly
were when i changed some doors about 18 months ago.

I have glossed and used varnish on interior doors and i have found it much
easier to apply a varnish or woodstain, with gloss it can be messy and you
will usually need a primer or if no undercoat is required 2 coats of gloss
to give a half decent finish . Woodstain is simple and quick, apply using a
brush or with some brands i think you can just wipe it on, it dries quickly
too.

Hope this helps

Tom
