does the vanity top have a protective coating?

6 years ago

I have an old wash stand I am using for a vanity and will have a vessel sink- I'm afraid over time water may ruin the wood top. Was anything special done to protect the surface before installing the sink? I love this look! Thank you

    Hello and thank you for your question. Yes, we used a marine varnish to protect the top from water damage. Hope this helps!

    May I ask what specific product you used for the marine finish? There are so many and I like the look of the finish. Thank you.

    Hi Catherine, I’m sorry, I don’t know what exact product we used but it is a clear finish with no color added and we used a satin finish. The satin finish gives it that soft sheen.

    Using a wash stand for a vanity is a great idea. We’re using an old wash stand in our bathroom for extra storage.
