Oil and Wax v lacquer finish ?

There is no bullet proof Wood Coating System I’m afraid… same goes for your house and car it has to withstand the rigours of UV Light, fluctuations in humidity, knocks and bumps of everyday use.
With most things they both have pro’s and con’s and the environment and use should be matched to the required finish.
