Question Paint or protectant for workbench?

Well, my wall/workbench thing is progressing reasonably.

I'm going to make a workbench/shelf here:






I'm going to put a nice thick piece of plywood up there, and maybe run it up the wall a few inches, backsplash-style, and I'd like to:

1. Either treat the wood or paint it with something chemical-resistant,

or

2. put some kind of laminate or something on it.

to protect from carb cleaner, brake cleaner, etc. etc.


I'd rather do option #1, because it's easier. Does anyone recommend or know of any kind of finish I can put on bare plywood to protect it from garage chemicals? I don't need style-points, just functionality.

Thanks!
