This is the finish I prefer....

but most any exterior varnish / like an exterior grade Spar Varnish by Verathane...that is common in a lot of hardware stores will work just fine as well.

Varnish is way harder than any oil finish.../ but a lot of products that are called Tung Oil are really varnishes....like Watco's Danish Oil finish ( they're really a varnish as well ).
