Default Sealing ipe ends

I am making up a tabletop of ipe. I have read that the ends need to be seal
to prevent splitting.

I usually use a black pitch made for roof repairs (because I happen to have
a can of it I need to use up) but it doesn't seem appropriate here. Would
paste wax, shellac, or varnish work?
