In Response To: Material: Polyurethane instead of Varnish (Joe)

Joe asked
: What I wondered is: What is the good in using the 'harder' finish, if the
: 'harder' finish isn't 'hard' enough to keep from getting scratched and
: still needs to be recoated to be 'repaired'.

The harder finish is easier to find (and cheaper) and the varnish is harder to find. That's (IMHO) the good.
