Now I need to finish a bench. I would be grateful for suggestions.

I just built a nice strong bench with MDF for my metalworking vice and have no Poly or any other durable finishes around. I do have oil based and wash up in water fence and deck stains and I'm wondering if these will work to protect the MDF from the odd splash of water. I would love to get this done today so I can mount my vice and get to hobbying without the costly and time consuming 3 hour trip to town. I have Briwax as well if that will help.

Anything (paint/stain) properly applied will help.

I put sheet Formica/plastic laminate on my last bench. It really helped keep the messes under control.

Part of this bench will be my welding corner in my small shop and I plan to cover that half with sheet metal. I've been working my ass off getting everything ready before the snow flies anytime now and being a hour from town makes running for stuff a really pain. I'm using what I have on hand to avoid those trips.:)

Net lag is greater than 3 hours ....
