Has anyone got any preferences regarding a clear finish for a wooden star rail? I made the rail from pine and stained it with "old pine" stain. It looks rather nice, but I think some kind of final finish might be in order.
The firs time I did one of these, I used yacht varnish. I vowed to use something different next time. I didn't like the feel of the yacht varnish somehow.
What about some kind of wax? Or would that feel sticky to the touch? (I've never experimented with wax finishes before.
I do have a tin of teak oil somewhere. That might be an option, yes?
Thanks
