Finish for fence pailing coffee table.
Hi guys.
I spent the weekend making a coffee table out of fence pailings (picture attached) and I'm torn between giving it an oil finish or a Matt lacquer finish.
Any thoughts, given its a coffee table that will have things placed on top of it?
Thanks.

I like the look of the table and I think that a matt finish would maintain it character. I am thinking that a poly based finish would be best.
