wood finish
Furniture protective coating
A wood finish is a coating applied to wood surfaces to protect them and enhance their appearance.
Finishes range from penetrating oils that soak into the grain to surface coatings like varnish, lacquer, or polyurethane that form a protective film.
The choice of finish affects durability, sheen, and how the wood's natural color develops over time: The antique table needed a new finish.
