I am coming towards the end of putting together a circular kitchen/dining table in european oak and would like advice about possible finishes.
This is the first hardwood project I have made and up to now I have only used danish oil or wax polish. I like the finish of both and they are easy but I don't know enough to say if they are suitable for the relatively hard use I forsee this table getting. We are not an organised enough family to always have a coaster or table mat to hand for hot things and the odd accident with a glass of water isn't impossible.
I can cope with a finish that needs reapplying from time to time.
Help please,
Simon
