I’m planning on getting a hardwood plywood board to attach to an antique(ish) teachers desk so I will have a larger desk. The teachers desk is only ~2.5x4.5’ and I’m looking at creating a 3x6’ desktop.
My question is, with what should I finish the hardwood plywood? I want to keep/see the wood grain, and would like a finish that will be reasonably durable from day to day wear.
Thanks.
I just put 3 coats of polyurethane on my workbench plywood and it’s doing fine after a year or so. I’ll probably switch to water based poly when my can of oil based runs out since I hear it’s just as durable indoors and easier to clean up after.
