Hi Friends
I've just finished building a new table and oiled it. Now I'm looking to seal it. The timber has a few imperfections in it that I liked and choose not to sand out and some couldn't be. (Holes in knots). But I want the table be flat so that not cracks can collect food and crumbs.

Is there a product that dries clear and fills the imperfections?

All help appreciated

Cheers

Hi Ian, Pictures attached to original post. This was my first attempt at a serious project so the joinery will improve over time I hope.

Cheers

Your choice of polyester - Diggers 500g Cast And Embedding Resin | Bunnings Warehouse (http://www.bunnings.com.au/diggers-500g-cast-and-embedding-resin_p1874117)
or epoxy - Feast Watson 1mē Glass Finish | Bunnings Warehouse (http://www.bunnings.com.au/feast-watson-1m-glass-finish_p1520387) (despite its marketing as a finish, it'll do just as well as a clear filler)
or Pour On Gloss 250ml Starter Kit : Boatcraft Pacific, the home of wooden boat building. (http://boatcraft.com.au/Shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_21&products_id=85)
