I am laying out a long project to do (and hopefully it will only take a
short summer to finish it). It will be a 6' tall TV center, with raised
panel cabinets and all that (lots of open wood surfaces, both inside and
out). I will use WATCO Oak finish (prefer Natural but so many oaks in the
living room is already stained with Oak finishes, so makes senses to
follow the surroundings, right?). Now, I like to final coat it (is that
called "clear coating"?). What should I use?

Wax? Polyurethane? Lacquer? Spar? Shellac?

Semi-gloss?


You can get a great clear finish with Bartleys Gel Varnish. SemiGloss. Or
you can also get a great finish using a good FOAM brush and General Finishes
Arm-R-Seal.
