    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi &lt;SPAN style="color:var(--ck-color-mention-text);"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.workshop.bunnings.com.au/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/31365"&gt;@PaulaD&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Durability-wise you'd likely be best going with a hard coating like &lt;A href="https://www.bunnings.com.au/cabot-s-1l-satin-clear-benchtop-timber-finish_p1520590" target="_blank"&gt;Cabot's 1L Satin Clear Benchtop Timber Finish&lt;/A&gt;. It's a highly durable and stain-resistant coating. As with most coatings, it will send the timber a slightly darker shade, something similar to the image below. This is the difference between raw and sealed timber. You could try a wax or oil to achieve a more natural and raw look, but they aren't considered particularly durable.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Please let me know if you have any questions.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Mitchell&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;IMG class="image_resized" style="width:23.64%;" src="https://lithium-response-prod.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/bunnings.response.lithium.com/RESPONSEIMAGE/9ec057e4-47b9-4920-bd0f-60710a042093.default.png" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>Best sealer for this benchtop?</title>

&lt;P&gt; &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I have read mixed reviews about this Utility Panel. We are wanting to use it for our kitchen bench top including the sides of the island bench.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Could I get some advice on the best sealer etc to use. We have a spirited 12yo so will need to be super heavy duty. I want to keep the natural colours so no stain tint.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
