  • I'm refurbishing this wooden ladder as a towel rail in the bathroom, so I'd like it to be somewhat moisture resistant. Can I use varnish over the top of Danish Oil? Or will Danish Oil provide sufficient protection?

  • It's a towel rail so personally I would avoid the oil. A marine varnish would be my starting point.

    You probably can, but it's a shit idea. Just do the oil, rub excess off and let it dry well.
    In my opinion this also looks way nicer that putting varnish on nice wood like that.
    Remeber it's just moist towels, it's not like you're submerging the ladder in water for years.
