I know similar been asked many times but - best finish for interior wood situation? It's a pine bed headboard. Had some kind of (oil?) finish that went kinda gummy on the front although the side that was facing the wall is fine. Been scraping it off with turps.
Want a finish that will feel dry to the touch ie won't transfer oil to bed linen or feel tacky and won't go weird with skin contact, being leant against etc. Some kind of hard wax or oil finish? Strip it properly then use a varnish?
The pine is already slightly yellow and not too bothered about the finish being not clear, but don't want a dark stained finish.
