    Red face Bathroom vanity top

    Hi all,

    I am currently building a bathroom vanity unit including the top from Sydney blue gum.

    I usually use oil for my projects but I am unsure if this finish is suitable for a wet area. Especially for the top.

    Could I get a few suggestions of what people might recommend or have used and were the finishes successful and long lasting.

    I have no spray equipment so spray finishes are out unless I get it professionally done.

    Thanks
    Greg

    I'd be inclined to use two-part epoxy eg West System is one, there are others as well.

    cheers

    Growl,


    I had the same dilemma and used Spar Varnish. It has held up well for 8 years and although not my choice of finish has done its job
