I used to use Varnish when I could get it.

Now I only use Oil-Base Polys, but not the Fast-drying crap. Soon, I probably won't be able to get that either. Also I like Tung-Oil. I don't like Min-Wax at all - I think it is the worst product out there. Poly's should get hard, not rubbery. Make sure you let it dry thoughly between coats

Water-based poly's I tried but don't like it at all. Except on colored stains where I wanted a clear finish. W-B doesn't "Amber"

Spray Lacquer, Quick, but not enough prtection and doesn't amber.
