Dining table finish

Mandzhalas · 2023-01-29 11:52:04

Hi, Bought large dining table and 6 chairs that I would like to sand down and recoat. I am 90% sure it's oak. Project will be used in household with small kids, so I am expecting loads of spills on the table. What would you advise to apply on bare sanded wood? Polyurethane, hard wax oil or something else?

i recently used ronseal extra tough poly to redo a table for a neighbour - must check in with them. i was also recommended an acrylic finish, but they didn't have the one i was recommended in stock in MRCB so just went with the poly.

if you're in dublin, it might be worth popping into MRCB and asking their advice.
