For working surfaces, I have had the best results using a several coats of polyurethane or epoxy (be sure to follow manufacturer's instructions when using these) as the final finish with appropriate sanding in between and polishing of the final coat. If you use these finishes, it is a good idea to check that the stains/paint used under these are compatible with the final finish.
