I'm a total DIY'er here with little woodworking experiance, but I was able to build a bathroom vanity up to my wife's approval level and now I need to finish everything for use in a bathroom. The issue is that the wife wants to keep everything looking flat (at least somewhat flat), but I'm not sure how I can do that while also giving it a durable/water resistant finish. I'm mostly worried about the top, obviously.
I know that polyurethanes come in matte, but won't those be less durable? Is a satin finish a good compromise? Maybe there is another solution I've yet to consider? If it's worth mentioning, the wood is pine and will be stained and I need to try to seal the wood without changing the color too much.
Thanks for any help!
