For working surfaces, I have had the best results using  several coats of
polyurethane or epoxy (be sure to follow manufacturer's instructions when
using these) as the final finish with appropriate sanding/conditioning 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.

Good luck.
