: I top coated mine with water based poly clear because
: the latex is a satin finish and I wanted it to be glossy.

Someone suggested coating it with WB Poly too. Not for the gloss but to toughen it up. He also suggested mixing the poly with the paint at about 10%. I might try that on the next one. But got to say I am little gun shy.
