I'm building an L-shaped bar and have used maple plywood for the sides. I'm looking to get the maple to look like they do on a bowling lane (minus the slats of course). My grandfather owned 2 bowling alleys back in the 60s and I think he used to say that they used many coats of lacquer to get the look. Does this sound right or is there another way that is better to achieve the bowling lane look?

Oil...lots and lots of oil. there is no lacquer on a bowling lane, just bare wood with plenty of oil on it
Can't say I've ever seen an L shaped bowling lane...
heck, the way I bowl it'd probably improve my score... Bridger
